I think moving the Skin settings off of the blocks configuration page might create some confusion issues for users who are familiar with the way Skinr worked in D6, but overall it's not that big of a deal.

However, editing the Skin for something like the User Login block is now very difficult because the block is hidden for admin users and there is not link to configure the skin settings from the block's configuration page. As far as I can tell, the only way to edit Skins for anonymous-only blocks would be to temporarily change the site's permissions to allow anonymous users to edit Skins.

I suggest adding a link to a block's Fusion Apply page either from the Blocks Configuration page (admin/structure/block - beside "configure," add a link for "edit Skin") or from individual blocks' configuration page (add a vertical tab that just has a link to the block's Fusion Apply page).

I was expecting that "operations" column to be expandable, but it's not. The template is only setup for two options: "configure" and "delete". (The "operations" <th> is a colspan=2.)

Looks like I'd have to override the whole block-admin-display-form.tpl.php template. Alternatively, I could append the link onto one of these two variables (this is copy and pasted from the template file):

        <td><?php print $data->configure_link; ?></td>
        <td><?php print $data->delete_link; ?></td>

Hmm.

Here's a patch to add the "edit skins" links. Next time I'll do a feature branch.
