I would like it so the planner of a mission (i.e. in FSO) can pick the skin and include it into the mission. For me, not so much for historical significance (though it would be considered) but for cammo use. NOE, select something that will give you concealment. Up high, select something white, etc...
Unless I am misreading something here, I think you are onto a good and deliverable wish...
