layer in the tree, select Layer Properties, and go to the Styles tab.

This would require some more configuration options for the 
WMSStylesDialog, so it can be launched with one style selected and without
the dropdown list of styles.

I've got a wireframe backing me up too :)

So I guess really we should get Rollie to weigh in.  I think the way 
things are now works better if we have a separate detail page for the 
style, the dialog works better if we are just going to have an editor 
dialog in the various viewers.  I'm not sure right now which of those is 
the case, though.
