Eric, those extensions off of the pins would very closely mimick a JM press, which is an extremely good strength builder for your bench. I'd probably favor doing barbell skulls to my face or neck in the rack as you've described because it's a lot of stress on my elbows when I do them free range.

In my case, due to time restraints, all my skullcrushers I do are on the floor which is about the same thing. If I want more ROM, I usually lay down on a aerobics platform.

The only time I used the pins was for doing an 'elbows out' face press for high reps. Just keep a closegrip, elbows completely flared, and set the pins just above your face.
