I am following an MVVM pattern where my view model exposes a rich model.  The model in this case is an observable collection of child view models.  Each child view model has a model property, and the model exposed in this case is a rich class that has the properties I wish to bind to fields.

The problem I am running in to is that there is no way (as far as I can determine) to tell the grid that each row is bound to a view model, and that the field path should be "Model.PropertyName", not simply "PropertyName".

1) Is there a work around (other than duplicating all my properties in my view model)?

2) If not can this please be entered as a bug/feature request.  Since the MVVM pattern is now well established, it seems as if the grid should support this scenario.

Thanks
