Eclipse doesn’t recognize style in the Android Layout builder?

styles

Since Android supports styles and it's good practice to use them (similar to CSS), I made a new style and applied it to 3 buttons.

The Layout builder in Eclipse did not register the changes and either broke (showed nothing) or didn't apply styles at all.

After running the app in the emulator, styles are correctly applied.

So is there something I'm missing or the Android plugin doesn't support styles?
