yes, let's stop trying to make a standalone report mojo look like if it was done part of a site: standalone is standalone
having a standalone-oriented output will clarify many things, and finally improve user experience

in fact, this issue should be reoriented toward defining the standalone report look and feel

> currently, when a reporting mojo is not used as maven-site-plugin's report but as direct mojo invocation, maven-site-renderer default skin is always used: would be more consistent if using site decoration consistently with maven-site-plugin
> Or more precisely, I didn't currently find any reporting plugin that did the effort to mimic maven-site-plugin's decoration model/skin: every reporting plugin I know of uses features of {{maven-reporting-impl}} for site rendring (with this known limitation)
> implementing the feature in {{maven-reporting-impl}} will make it accessible to any reporting plugin once it upgrades it dependency version
> once done, we can activate skin resources copy, that was commented while working on MSHARED-120 (and would not give expected result if skin used is not consistent)
