"Edit widget" setting not loaded, when layer with default style is loaded

Dear developers.

The auto loading of default style of a layer is not working, and hasn't since 2.2, as far as I can see. This has been tested against 2.5.0-113.

When you initially load a file from e.g. PostGIS, that has a default style saved in the "layer_styles" table, all the "Edit widgets" remain as "Text Edit", when it should be "Value Map", "Photo" etc. Everything else loads ok.

However, if you at this point click "Restore Default Style", and select "Datasource database", the "Edit widgets" do get initialized correctly. Just not when the map is originally loaded. I believe it is the same for Shape files.

This is rather unfortunate, as it forces me (and many colleagues and partners) to stay with 2.2. Please fix for 2.6.

Our QGIS runs on windows 7 64 bit; PostgreSQL 9.2.5 and PostGIS 2.0.3 are running on CentOS 6.5 Final 64 bit.

Excuse me, but I have to ask:

If this is a duplicate of another bug report, where it says "Fixed in changeset e6a259d.", but it is not yet working in the current nightly master (QGIS ef56c53), then what gives? Will it not be implemented until the final 2.6 version is compiled?

This ticket is about saving inside the style, inside the database (postgresql) the state of edit widgtes, and I confirm that in master does not work, while saving the style as a .qml file works.

Saving and loading the widget settings already worked (that was what #19781 and co were about), but loaded the settings are only processed when the layer is already added to the layer registry, which wasn't the case. Now the layers are loaded without reading the style, added to the registry and only after that the settings are loaded and thereby also applied.
