If the layer has an SQL filter how are you going to translate that to 
the OSM plugin which doesn't understand SQL?

Likewise I believe all attributes returned by the OSM plugin are 
returned as strings, so any filter in the stylesheet which tries to do 
numeric comparisons on such an attribute will likely fail.
