here i found where is behaviour André is talking about documented:
http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/stylesheet.html:
When a style sheet is active, the QStyle returned by QWidget::style() is a
wrapper "style sheet" style, not the platform-specific style. The wrapper style
ensures that any active style sheet is respected and otherwise forwards the
drawing operations to the underlying, platform-specific style (e.g.,
QWindowsXPStyle on Windows XP).
