Just a simple thing is going to drive me crazy.
It looks like that the Header property isn't supported by System.Windows.Controls.TextBox! WHY?
But the screen-shot at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh202916%28v=vs.92%29.aspx claims that there is a Header property for TextBox!?
I am confused ... Also PhoneTextBox does not support a Header property?

Is it possible to add a Header property to the textbox control:

So I am not completely alone with that TextBox.Header question ... But what is the one and only answer for TextBox.Header? Even the MSDN article "TextBox Control Design Guidelines for Windows Phone" shows a screen-shot of TextBoxes using Header and pointing to System.Windows.Controls.TextBox that control does not support it!?
The workaround by "EGL" looks nice but how to define the InputScope (for example when I just need "Numbers") in XAML? Thank you for bringing some light into the dark ;-)

No idea? No chance to get this supported by this Toolkit?
Of course I already have my own TextBox control which does it for me but I would prefer that not all WP7 application developers have to cook their soup themselves ;-)
