But this is the way albatross does things, too. The panels are rendered
after the content. Finch was doing it the other way around.
You're touching here at XWiki core structure
and it's not never a good
thing to change that unless you completely understand what it means.
In the same way you can delete lots of jar files in the WEB-INF/lib
dir but if you do you'll find one day that when you use such and such
plugin it doesn't work.

This is my issue with the albatross skin in general. It assumes a
three panel layout that doesn't fit our corporate guidelines. (i.e.
per our guidelines, the content always renders first: so you end up
with the content, then the right side, then the left side). If you
just brought all of the *.vm files from albatross into the templates
directory, I would still be broken.. I have to go and update view,
edit, inline -- any of the template documents that render the basic
layout of the page.
I have a patch (which I should submit, because I don't think I did),
that allows you to specify what the default "template" directory
should be-- it's a simple patch, but allowed me to make sure that
under no circumstances would xwiki go looking for things in the
default template directory.
So I'll take a look @ what's coming, and we'll try to be better at
submitting patches, etc. as we upgrade. There was only one of me last
time around, and not enough clock..
