                "Custom" ListBox ... there's the problem.

                "Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I

                  Because it's WPF. WPF is a great example of how your (or anyone's) years of practice is an exercise WPF telling you "no", "no", "sort of", "no", "no", "ok in this custom scenario but don't expect it to behave the same if you make one little tweak." At least that was my experience. I gave up on WPF pretty much at the get-go because it kept telling me "no" far too often.
