If you think this is a PITA, you can add it as a feature request to our bugtracker: <http://aqualung.sf.net/mantis> Dunno ;) (Just a wild guess: in today's cold hard bloody world, appearance is a major factor when choosing between otherwise nearly equivalent alternatives... ;)) btw, Aqualung's first and most important feature is not skinability, but sample-accurate track changing (so you can play concert recordings without the sound getting interrupted on track changes), sample rate conversion via Erik de Castro Lopo's libsamplerate and LADSPA support.
