Patch: issue RT-14177

[Kevin Rushforth]

Hi Florian,

This JIRA issue is targeted for 3.0 which is just in the initial 
planning stages, so no one has looked at it yet.

The patch as attached to the issue deals with one case of CSS loading a 
skin, but when the controls team evaluated it, their take was that it a 
more general platform issue, although it could be dealt with in 
isolation. In any case, even if I were to assign this back to someone on 
the controls team, this code would need to be evaluated for potential 
bugs and to ensure that there are no security issues (probably not an 
issue, but since it would be using a system class loader we need to make 
sure it is never called from a privileged context), which is unlikely to 
happen for the current release.
