GtkSourceView 2: how to define a style on the fly?

Hi,

I have a dumb question related to defining new styles in GtkSourceView  
2.  The Language Definition reference says for the "style" tag:

<quote>
map-to (optional) 	 

[...]When omitted the style is not considered derived from any style  
and will be not highlighted until the user specifies a color scheme for  
this style.</quote>

Well, how can I map the style in my application?  As an example, I  
define a lang file which contains the statement

<style id="my-style" _name="My special style">

which is used for a "content" in the lang file, and in the application  
this lang file is assigned to the buffer using  
gtk_source_buffer_set_language().

How can I access this style in the application to set the properties  
e.g. from user prefs?  It is not accessible through the  
GtkSourceStyleScheme returned from the buffer.  What did I miss here?

Any help is welcome!

Cheers, Albrecht.
