Complete, utter nonsense? ;-) Other geometries might be of different nature: the symbolizer that is not specifying the geom name would apply to all and render weird stuff (what's that point sitting in the middle of my map... oooh, it's the centroid of the polygonal 2nd geometry) Other geometries at different resolutions levels (without the pregeneralized datastore acting as a mediator): dramatic perf slowdown. Other geometries in different projections: strange stuff appearing on your map where you don't expect it. I cannot think of any sane use of rendering all geometries. Also, see this from the SLD spec: "The Geometry element of a LineSymbolizer defines the linear geometry to be used for styling. The Geometry element is optional and if it is absent then the “default” geometry property of the feature type that is used in the containing FeatureStyleType is used. The precise meaning of “default” geometry property is system-dependent. Most frequently, feature types will have only a single geometry property." Mind, it says it's system dependent, and it say "_the_ default geometry", meaning there is one and only one, otherwise they would have said "all geometries available" no?
