Hi Jukka, I did not know OGR feature style.
IMHO, the way to go for complex styling is sld and se. They offer a better separation between data and styling and are widely supported. I'm not against the pick color tool because I'm sure it can help to do nice maps efficiently in some circumstances, but I'd rather spend time to improve advanced styling (as in kosmo) and sld support.
