I have tried for way too long now and am throwing in the towel. Working with skins and skin classes can be enormously frustrating, in my opinion. I see no possible way to do this with skins, because you can only override functions of the parent skin class, it never gets back to the object which is calling the skin. (Unless I go global and down the tree, but that is ugly.)
The only way I have found to do it is to bypass skins and write your own Renderer, as done here: http://cookbooks.adobe.com/post_Tabbar_with_close_button-17146.html If anyone can get it working in the skin class please let me know. Otherwise I am going to avoid skins as much as possible, or just use them for visual only purposes.
