When using a property grid, I have a DataTemplateSelector for properties that require my custom control to edit.  Upon initializing my control, I need a view model set, so I use AutoBindBehavior.UpdateBindingOnElementLoaded for that purpose.  Several times I have renamed a convenience setter for a property in my view model without renaming the corresponding dependency property, thus I was violating convention but nothing else.  Each time I did that, I would get a null reference exception.  I spent many hours trying to figure out what I did wrong.

I would be SOOO helpful if the exception in this case said "unable to find dependency property X"  I would've know exactly what I did wrong...
