You could apply the skeletal bones to a null object, thus creating a
skeleton that could be loaded into different scenes. The null could be
replaced by the desired poly mesh using the Replace Object option. In fact,
you don't have to use a null. Any object will do. Since bones, and IK, are
saved as "scene" info and not object info, you just have to "load from scene".
