Lev, a further thought.
I've seen melifaro's new comments, but can't comment on those except
that we are agreed on really needing some usage examples.

This use of 'skip' bugs me in another way; it could easily be confused
by some with skipto, just by use of the word. Various example rulesets
actually use $skip as shorthand for 'skipto $somerule', for example.
I think that 'defer' - put off to a later time, postpone - or perhaps
less favourably but similar enough, 'delay', would provide clearer
meaning here, especially if the deferred action is itself a 'skipto'.
cheers, Ian
