Really? Huh. It seems like it should be able to; Tile.WFS calls
layer.addFeatures, which goes directly to the Layer.Vector 
addFeatures, so far as I can tell, and that seems to call
drawFeature, which uses the StyleMap; the format (at least for
GML) doesn't seem to set feature.style properties, so I'm
not sure why StyleMaps wouldn't work?

(Note that whether it does or not is not relevant to whether
it's the right solution; it's not. But sometimes it is easier
to use; specifically, it doesn't require you to know the 
geometry name in the backend in order to formulate the request
correctly, and can be easier to debug...)
