title: WPF custom control with generics - possible?
body: <p>I'd like to create a custom WPF control using generics:</p>
  
  <pre><code>public class MyGenericTypeControl&lt;T&gt; : ItemsControl 
  {   
     // ...
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is this possible to do? In my initial experimentation, I get design-time/compile-time XAML errors as soon as I try to add this control somewhere. This isn't surprising, as construction of my custom control requires additional information that XAML does not provide.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
