there is the skin name...
maybe we could use that as part of our convention ?
you can ask the skin tool whats the cookie name.

then you could do skinname.beginswith('plone') or beginswith('cmf')
or beginswith('mmmanager') and just say if you are going to pick
a skin name it has to be prefixed by the name of the skin you are using.

mmmanager_customer_skin could be a name of a cookie name.
that would trigger it to use that skin.

but why are you having to do this?  what is so special about plone?
that you need to treat things differently?
