How is skin shortcuts different than Favourites or Super Favourites for that matter? Just trying to wrap my head around another short cut program?

Skin Shortcuts allows the skinner to easily provide a system to edit the full home menu, compared to others which simply manage a list of personal shortcuts. Little need for it with Transparency, though, which has a good customised menu system as-is.

As far as I'm aware, but I'd gladly be proven wrong, there is no way to customize the basic entries in the home menu. For instance, Movies always brings you to the standard movies view, no matter if you customize the relevant node, because it calls a window and not a node. Skins using Sking Shortcuts allow, from what I've seen, total customization of home menu.

I guess Ronie isn't planning to add support for this anytime soon.

I think Estuary is quite different and it definitely doesn't look like a fanart skin.

Looks like ashlar and I are still on the same mission... Custom menu items would be great. For example, would really love to exclude 3D movies from the default movie home menu item. And Classical music from the default music home menu.
Transparency! is still my favorite skin and I always prefer not to use Mods as I need to rely that future updates will be provided.
I hope ronie changes his mind on this and/or elaborates what speaks against integrating this (assuming the reason goes beyond time needed to do so).
