...read that.

Damn. This really does both suck and blow :-(

What sucks is that there's no way to hook traversal after authentication.

What blows is that I have to call this nasty little thing from main_template:
member = context.portal_membership.getAuthenticatedMember()
should_be = member.their_skin
if context.REQUEST.get('portal_skin')!=should_be:
     REQUEST=context.REQUEST
     member.setProperties({'portal_skin':should_be})
     context.portal_skins.updateSkinCookie()
     REQUEST.RESPONSE.redirect(REQUEST.URL+'?'+REQUEST.QUERY_STRING)

What can be done to make this better?

cheers,

Chris
