Perhaps the issue is more than I'm not comfortable with idiomatic .NET.  
I did take a semi-serious stab at working with WPF in IronPython, but it 
just wasn't comfortable.

I am very pleased to see that an IronPython book is in the works.  
Because I think WPF is one of the most exciting things to come out of 
Microsoft in a very long time, I will be among the first in line.
