So, it is not a matter of it being possibe or not... it is a legal matter.
(see
Skype Desktop API Terms of Use, especially part 4.2 paragraph viii and part 4.3)
This is also the reason why Plus! uses seperate windows instead of altering the existing Skype windows for its own interface, and for example for playing winks etc.
Maybe, if the terms change in the futur, or if they find another way around it, it may be done. But I highly doubt it will be done at this moment in time.
