In GS we're starting to have SLD 1.0 and, in a community module, CSS. Hopefully some day we'll have SLD 1.1 or later too. That means a variety of formats, or more in general, SLD sources. It would be nice to have a pluggable style object source concept. Today a SLD is defined by a name and a location, we could have a name, source id, and location instead. This would allow you to avoid storing 25000 SLDs, but you'd still need to keep the 25000 style xml files around. Having something that allow to dynamically create the style for a layer without even have the style configured... hum... Well, it could be a sort of a trick: one style, called "dynamic", whose contents change depending on the layer used to load it. That would still require API changes, as now the style loading code path is fully disconnected from the layer one (there is no layer information available to the ResourcePool when loading a style) Definitely requires some thinking and work...
