Create a custom editor

[StepTNT]

I'm trying to use a DataForm to avoid writing my settings page manually, but I need some custom editors.

In your documentation I can't find what I need, but I'm quite sure that we have this possibility and I'd like to know how to do this.

Here's just an example of my property:

public Color BackgroundColor
{
    get { return _backgroundColor; }
    set
    {
        if (_backgroundColor == value) return;
        _backgroundColor = value;
        RaisePropertyChanged(() => BackgroundColor);
    }
}

and I want it do be bound to che Color property of a Coding4Fun's ColorPicker.

How can I do that?

As a side question, can I define my own annotations to make this thing automatic?
Something like

[ColorValueAttribute]
public Color BackgroundColor
{
    ...
}

to create a ColorPicker for each property marked with that attribute.
