(Actually, I'm not sure if it's a bug or a feature...)

When importing af SLD style layout file with filter element values and the value ex. looks like this: "4e-003" the value is mis-interpreted as a decimal (in scientific notation) instead of a string

..
          <ogc:Filter xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc">
            <ogc:PropertyIsEqualTo>
              <ogc:PropertyName>underelement_kode</ogc:PropertyName>
              <ogc:Literal>11a-002</ogc:Literal>
            </ogc:PropertyIsEqualTo>
          </ogc:Filter>

The above SLD part is converted to a QGIS style rule like this: underelement_kode = '11a-002'

However this example is misinterpreted

..
          <ogc:Filter xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc">
            <ogc:PropertyIsEqualTo>
              <ogc:PropertyName>underelement_kode</ogc:PropertyName>
              <ogc:Literal>11e-002</ogc:Literal>
            </ogc:PropertyIsEqualTo>
          </ogc:Filter>

It's converted to a QGIS style rule like this: underelement_kode = 0.11

Changing the SLD style element to <ogc:PropertyIsLike> which must have a string value doesn't change the behavior. It will make a rule like this: underelement_kode LIKE '0.11' instead of: underelement_kode LIKE '11a-002'

The example file contains a SLD created from a correct rule-based styling in QGIS with the abovementioned values and exported as a SLD file.
When re-imported into QGIS the style rules for values that can be interpreted as a decimal in scientific notation have changed ("4e-003" --> 0.004)
