Windows Phone 7 Text Style Picker Control

It looks like the off-the-shelf WP7 SDK, the Silverlight SDK, and even the Coding4Fun suite lack one very basic piece of functionality that you may want to provide your WP7 app users with: selecting the font style (family, bold, italic), color and size.
Since I needed something like that myself, I thought: why won't I just pack it and share with the fellow developers? ;-)

So, here it is: http://wp7textstylepicker.codeplex.com/





Documentation, source code and sample app illustrating the usage of the control are available at the CodePlex page.
Any feedback (feature requests, constructive critics, or unconcealed flattery), as well as rating the control and spreading the word, will be sincerely appreciated! :-)
