I've heard rumors that the Skype codebase is a giant mass of unmaintainable code "approaching a singularity" and for this reason alone you wouldn't expect it to be terribly secure. At one time I wondered if I was too paranoid for adding another user account for the sole purpose of running Skype, but I no longer wonder.
That and the fact that OS X security is not fantastic to begin with, and I don't want anything weird showing up in screen sharing with job interviews (say, in search history).
