[Interest] MapboxGL offline and custom vector tiles source

[maitai]

Yes it includes texts, images (icons), and many kinds of shapes 
(polygons filled with patterns, etc).

I am trying to play with geojson for a week or so to see if it fits my 
needs, but I am facing some issues with polygons, maybe this is on my 
side so I need to investigate more.

Is there a clean way to prevent the plugin to try to download tiles from 
mapbox or elsewhere and just use custom layers, paints, layouts 
MapParameters? For the time being I am putting a dummy 
mapboxgl.mapping.additional_style_urls parameter (http://none) but this 
is not very clean...

Philippe.
