This is where I would look at the "experience goals"
you have defined/discovered for your user population. 

What kind of experience do they want to have with the
product? Do they want no-muss, no-fuss, wrinkle-free?
Do they want a highly personal experience? In what
ways will this skinning feature allow them to meet
this goal?

Then, what is the value of satisfying that experience
goal? What happens if you don't satisfy it? What is
the relative value compared to satisfying their other
types of goals (typically "end goals")?
