The styling window only allows changing the simplest styling information (like outline and fill colour).
This should allow much richer colourings - for example, colour by unique attribute, and colour by attribute range. See other GIS programs for details.

The request is a common one - SLD is rich enough to allow for many GIS questions to be answered. We support the object model, to allow for just this kind of use.
Here is a plan:
1. Allow a sld file to be dropped on a layer
2. Allow for a "copy style" context menu item that places the sld on the clipboard.
This will allow david to debug his sld documents (his real need), and buy us all some time as we try and figure out a nice balance.
Long term though the style configurator extention point is how we plan to address this. We epxect developers to come in with their own user interfaces that allow the definition of a complex SLD against a known feature type in an easy manner.
