Hi Nathan, all, I completely agree we should change the "Save/restore Style" into "Save/restore properties". I also think it could be great to have a button "save style". But the latest should not lie in the bottom of the layer dialog, but instead in the Style tab only, to avoid confusion. By the way, having a "save style" button could also lead to the ability of saving/restoring more than one style for each layer (via a combo box for the restore button), which could be great too.
