 QGIS should be able to read and write style definitions in SLD format.

 Since an XML format is already used with QGIS to read and write symbology,
 a set of functions that wrote definitions using all possible parts of the
 SLD spec should be feasible.

 It would be a huge advancement towards supporting an important standard
 for styles, of great utility to MapServer and GeoServer users that use SLD
 to apply to WMS, and perhaps contribute to the use/ability of  SLD
 'sidecars', essentially SLD files to be distributed alongside file
 datasources.
