We've done some work to allow rendering non-point geometries with a 
single marker.  To do this, you specify an externalGraphic property on 
the symbolizer used to render your feature.  This does not allow 
rendering *both* the polygon and the graphic.

If this behavior is not in the trunk and there is not a ticket 
requesting that this feature be added, please add a ticket.
