WPF Control's Nested property's data binding

Question

I\'m trying to develop user control with some nested properties that allows to use databinding to set it. For example, I have something like this:

// Top lev

H.B. right, nested control does not inherit DataContext from mycontrol. Tyr out setting it explicitly:

<local:mycontrol x:name="myControl" 
                 topleveltestproperty="{Binding Value}" >          
   <local:mycontrol.nestedobject>             
           <local:mynestedtype x:name="myNestedControl" 
                               DataContext="{Binding ElementName=myControl,
                                                     Path=DataContext}"
                               nestedtestproperty="{Binding Value}" />          
  </local:mycontrol.nestedobject>       
</local:mycontrol>
