Hello,
It is true, but not the whole truth. GDAL does understand certain kind of
attributes as drawing styles, see http://www.gdal.org/ogr/ogr_feature_style.html
However, I am not sure if QGIS can utilize them automatically.
I tried to use OGR but failed until now :-(. I can specify a style in my c++ code but it is ignored when opening the shapefiles with QGIS.

This post (http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/MapInfo-tab-files-td4378592.html) suggests that QGIS don't care about OGR styles. The post is 1 year old. The issue may have been treated since ?

Benoît
