CornerRadius support for GridView?

[CodingOctocat]

Rounded corners are becoming more and more common in modern UI design.

Right now, the only way to get rounded corners on GridView is to wrap it in a Border, which feels a bit unnecessary.

Would it be possible to add a CornerRadius dependency property directly to GridView?

It would make layouts cleaner and more consistent with other controls that already support rounded corners.

The GridView control inherits from the ListBox control and also reuses its template. So it might not be that easy. But, I will take a look.

I reviewed the ListView style in HandyControl and found it overrides the Template and internally wraps it with a Border. For a UI control library, this is acceptable. However, for the VirtualizingWrapPanel, providing a separate style might be unnecessary (as it also requires adding dependent properties like corner radius values).

I've looked into it. The only proper solution right now would be to overwrite the entire template. However, I'd prefer to avoid doing that. Therefore, I am closing this issue as 'not planned'.
There may be better options in the future though, as work is currently underway on this in WPF. See dotnet/wpf#8544.
