We don't currently support styling other map types, because we can not recolour the base imagery right now, which for hybrid is the satellite photos, and for terrain is the green/grey elevation map. Would it be useful to be able to restyle the features on terrain (eg. the roads) without styling the terrain beneath? My gut feeling is that this would just confuse and disappoint the majority of users, who would expect the whole map to be desaturated or colorized for example.
Many thanks, Thor.
