Well just because YOU don't have any use for it doens't make it useless in general ;)

I've never used the skin shader for cloth but I can see how it might work for certain kinds of fabric.

I've once had a very nice (pre BB) Skin Shader that relied mostly on the clay shader. Looked very weird unrendered but had a wonderfully velveteen sheen to it. Very nice skin.

But... replicand.. are you saying that the Anisotropic is broken in P7? I've always only used it for the specular highlights in the eyes, and I haven't noticed that it behaved differently...
