A style missing perhaps? I mean honestly!

I've been dabbling in WPF lately. Nothing too fancy, just fixing up some parts of an application we're currently working on and integration with Reporting Services. One of the things that is quite time-consuming in WPF is layout, specially when it comes to laying out business forms (i.e. a set of fields on a form to collect data). An alternative to a writing all this by hand (or using some flavor of Expression) is to use the XAML Power Toys, which generates the XAML for you based on a series of input values.
Instead of explaining all the cool features it has here, just go to the site

I read something interesting on Scott Hanselman's blog the other day regarding WPF. It was in relation to activating and dis-activating some controls based on the value of other ones. And I "quote":

His proposed solution is taking advantage of WPF's extremely powerful binding capabilities. I "quote" again:

He's happy with that. I'm not! He's putting business logic inside the view. And it scares me to see things like this because it tends to non-testable and "obscure" problems.
