I would rather pass the layer's id. So if you pass the layer's ID as 
the style name, then you don't have to add class="" in the div tag to 
get it applied, and in that case noInlineStyle is implicitely true. Now 
if the name passed is different from  the id, then it would mean 
generate a class="name".

So in a case where you want both to not use inline style and a class, 
you would have to call it twice:
lyr.setClass(lyr.id);	//Tell not to generate inline style
lyr.setClass('blueBg'); //Make it generate class=blueBg

Does it make a second argument unnecessary ?
