We have a layer with +- 350K records and the point features are rendered
based on 2 attributes: 1 has 10 distinct values and defines the symbol
(mark), the other one has 12 distinct values and defines the color.

Now we have 1 big SLD with +- 3200 lines and because of its size the SLD is
hard to maintain. That's why we want to change and are looking for
alternatives. I tested already 2 alternatives: using recode function and
storing symbol + color in spatial table. Both have its pros and cons. But
maybe there are a few others.

In an ideal world using this SLD (or SLDs) it's possible to:
- render the features correctly (of course)
- render features which are unknown with a specific rendition (similar to
the ElseIf rule)
- create different legends: 1 based on symbol, the other one on color
(because a legend with 120 different items - as with our current SLD - is
not really clarifying)
