I forget this ALL the time and end up having to delete my expanded folder, unblock the Zip, then re-extract. Thanks!

That is an interesting question... I think I'd probably still use the Locator, but instead of doing what the code snippets help it to do, I'd replace that code with MEF. That way, the locator can still serve the purpose of managing ViewModel lifetimes as well as being the "blendable" bit for data binding to the DataContext properties... Make sense?

I could see using MEF inside the locator but that seems useless. Seems like you could skip the locator class and instead use MEF as an IOC container and doing dependency injection into the View's contructor. Does this sound like the right approach with MEF? If so, it still seems like you should plan on setting the DataContext in XAML (Like Laurent put in his comment section) so that Blend can know about my ViewModel.
