Robin,

the XML Theme Legend doesn't display classes. It is intended more for 
use with OGC layers (WMS) which don't have that level of information 
available.  I may extend it in the future but not right now.

So your only resource now is to use the html legend template.  It should 
be relatively easy (if you know dhtml/css/javascript) to make expandable 
sections in a legend template file.  For instance, you can place layer 
names and classes into separate div elements in the template and use 
javascript to set the display to block or none to show/hide the classes. 
  Similarly you can use groups to do the same thing for layers.

Cheers,

Paul
