How would one go about binding the tabs ( ContentPanes in DocumentContentHost/SplitPane/TabGroupPane? ) to collection (ObservableCollection<ViewModel>) exsposed as a property of the DataContext? Then apply correct DataTemplate dynamicaly based on the ContentPane's datacontext of the ViewModel.
Essentially bind to the right 'Content' property and apply the right datatemplate ( which I can't seem to find ) ?
I have been wrestling with this issue as well. I very eagerly await a reply. This issue has essentially stopped us dead in our tracks for use of the XamDockingManager.
I suspect this maybe our answer?

"Note, since the tab items must be modifiable/movable by the end user, the TabGroupPane does not support binding its ItemsSource."
Thoughts?
