I didn't know that. Good. But creating SLD's by hand is not very 
enticing. I definitely look forward to seeing the interactive 
functionality in place. The ability to select styling interactively, 
then export an SLD for re-use in other applications (eg, Mapserver) 
would be very nice, too.

Thanks.
