Andrea asked the same question ...
Layer.getStyle() is something that each layer implementation needs to provide
to spoon feed feature based renderers a style they can chew on. In the same
manner they get to spoon feed a FeatureSource (even if their content is not
features). Good times.... this is used to prevent the same crazy workarounds
appearing in each feature based rendering system (StreamingRenderer, KML
renderer etc...).
StyleLayer has getStyle and setStyle; that is the style can be changed; so in a
sense we are adding one new method (ie setStyle); and overriding getStyle so it
returns a field value.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
