Because the generated HTML input control actually has this structure:
<span id="my-control" class="xforms-input ...">
<input ...>
You can style the actual input field with something like:
.xforms-input input { ... style here ...}
It can certainly be considered a bug that controls are not consistently
organized like this.
Also have a look at the section "Making Things Look Nicer" in the tutorial:
