[Zope-CMF] Forcing skins by role

Hi,
I'd like users to a CMF site I'm working on to
see one of two skins, based on whether or not the user has
a role.
Aside from a long detour down a horrible hack that ended
up nowhere, I've tried a python script / Access Rule
setup similar
to what Carl Rindell posted on 7/31/02, but I can't
get it working.
Here's my access rule - it's a script (python) obviously:
who = context.portal_membership.getAuthenticatedMember()
if who.hasRole(context, ['Manager']):
newskin = 'Skin A'
else:
newskin = 'Skin B'
REQUEST.set('portal_skin', newskin)
context.setupCurrentSkin(REQUEST)
As far as I can tell, this doesn't do a damn thing.
I always get the skin set as default in the portal_skins
properties view. And yes, I'm really testing both with managers
and non-managers.
Any thoughts on what might be wrong, or a better approach?
