'skeumorphic' - did you mean 'anthropomorphic'?

I didn't. I meant 'skeuomorphic' as in 'designed with cues that correspond to reality, to indicate corresponding functions and behaviour'. It's a bit more nebulous when applied to real code, since we're thinking in terms of concept and behaviour, but the same thought applies.
