Cannot open Style Editors for created layer

[fgdrf]

To reproduce:

• Create a new Layer
• select the new layer in layers View (which still has not feature to render)
• select Style Action

Then nothing happens and a NullPointerException is logged for OpenStyleEditorAction in background:

Hi @fgdrf ,
When you say in step 3 select Style Action do you mean the change Style action available by the popup context menu?
If you indeed refer that that, in windows I do not phase any similar problem the style dialog opens without any exception being thrown.
