how else can a plugin display a message or ask a question? since 
cInterface::Confirm() also calls Skins.Message(), I suppose Confirm()
is also illegal for plugins?

this is how muggle has always been doing this:

#if VDRVERSNUM >= 10307
        Skins.Message (mtInfo, buffer,duration);
        Skins.Flush ();
#else
        Interface->Status (buffer);
        Interface->Flush ();
#endif

and

    if (!Interface->Confirm(tr("Import items?")))
            return false;
