Creating XTP controls shouldn't be done in code anymore. Instead of

reportCtrl.AddColumn(...);
reportCtrl.AddColumn(...);
...
reportCtrl.AddRecord(new CXTPReportRecord());
...
pRecord->AddItem(new CXTPReportRecordItemText());

it would be much better if I could have a XAML file with markup:

<xtp:ReportControl>
   <xtp:ReportControl:Column />
   <xtp:ReportControl:Column />

   <xtp:ReportControl:Record>
      <xtp:ReportControl:RecordItemText />
   </xtp:ReportControl:Record>

</xtp:ReportControl>

This should be supported by all your controls. This would also make the transition from MFC to your WinForms or WPF controls much easier.
