I casually mentioned two tricks for sharing the same XAML across Silverlight and WPF in the notes of a post a couple weeks ago. I used both techniques in my DataVisualizationDemos project (which compiles for Silverlight and WPF from the same source code) and wanted to call them out for others in similar situations. The feedback I got was quite positive - until someone tried the subclassing trick with HierarchicalDataTemplate. While there's no reason that shouldn't work, it doesn't.
