I remember how Fluid didn't have a useskin parameter - the reason behind that was because Fluid wasn't a separate skin, it was a compulsory change to Oasis.

The fact that Venus wasn't designed from the ground up as a separate skin with a useskin parameter seems to indicate that it will be also implemented over Oasis.
