Having a Style and ExtrinsicStyle? class is too complex, and unnecessary.
We have two classification (and rendering) paths. One is classification of features entirely within PCL. The other, unique to PCL-MapServer? is classification within MapServer?. I'm now of the opinion that the best place to specify which branch to take is at the Layer level.
layer.classifier = 'INTERNAL' (default) layer.classifier = 'EXTERNAL' (depends on the particular rendering engine)

Done in r378.
layer.classifier = 0 # default, internal classification layer.classifier = 1 # external, will generally be faster, but with strict limits on filter expressions
Will require small changes to mapping.interfaces.ILayer and mapping.Layer
