What are the defaults for Binding.Mode=Default for WPF controls?

问题

In WPF Binding.Mode, when selecting Default, it depends in the property being binded.

I am looking for some list or some convention or any information for the defaults for the various controls.
I mean, what properties are TwoWay by default and so on. Any links, ideas, thoughts and even rants are welcommed!

Similar to UpdateSourceTrigger, the default value for the Mode property varies for each property. User-editable properties such as TextBox.Text, ComboBox.Text, MenuItem.IsChecked, etc, have TwoWay as their default Mode value. To figure out if the default is TwoWay, look at the Dependency Property Information section of the property. If it says BindsTwoWayByDefault is set to true, then the default Mode value of the property is TwoWay. To do it programmatically, get the property metadata of the property by calling GetMetadata and then check the boolean value of the BindsTwoWayByDefault property.

The safest way would be to always be explicit what kind of binding mode you want from a binding.

Here's a way to find the Default mode supported by a DP -

.NET Reflector is your friend. With reflector, search for TextBox and look at the source for the static constructor (.cctor()). Here, you will be able to find the code used for registering the TextProperty DP:
TextProperty = DependencyProperty.Register
               (
                   "Text", 
                   typeof(string), 
                   typeof(TextBox), 
                   new FrameworkPropertyMetadata
                   (
                      string.Empty, 
                      FrameworkPropertyMetadataOptions.Journal |
                      FrameworkPropertyMetadataOptions.BindsTwoWayByDefault, 
                      new PropertyChangedCallback(TextBox.OnTextPropertyChanged), 
                      new CoerceValueCallback(TextBox.CoerceText), 
                      true, 
                      UpdateSourceTrigger.LostFocus
                   )
                );
Notice that a parameter is passed to the Register method indicating the default Binding Mode: FrameworkPropertyMetadataOptions.BindsTwoWayByDefault. If you use reflector to look at the registration for TextBlock’s Text DP, you will see that no such value is passed, in which case we assume the binding is one way by default.

Taken from Bea Stollnitz's post : How can I update an explicit binding within a template?

Although having some kind of list of important DP's would be very helpful.

Was looking for a list as well, mostly to find out which bindings could be set to one-way to improve performance. The following functions can help you find which controls use two-way binding by default:

public IList<DependencyProperty> GetAttachedProperties(DependencyObject obj)
{
    var result = new List<DependencyProperty>();
    foreach (PropertyDescriptor pd in TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(obj, new Attribute[] { new PropertyFilterAttribute(PropertyFilterOptions.Valid) }))
    {
        var dpd = DependencyPropertyDescriptor.FromProperty(pd);
        if (dpd != null)
        {
            result.Add(dpd.DependencyProperty);
        }
    }
    return result;
}

public bool IsBindsTwoWayByDefault(DependencyObject obj, DependencyProperty property)
{
    var metadata = property.GetMetadata(obj) as FrameworkPropertyMetadata;
    if (metadata != null)
    {
        return metadata.BindsTwoWayByDefault;
    }
    return false;
}

Using a print function, gives us a list:

var objList = new List<DependencyObject> { new TextBox(), new TextBlock(), new Label(), new ComboBox(), new Button() };
foreach (var obj in objList)
{
    var props = GetAttachedProperties(obj);
    foreach (var prop in props)
    {
        if(IsBindsTwoWayByDefault(obj, prop))
            Debug.WriteLine($"{obj} : {prop.OwnerType}:{prop.Name}");
    }
}

Sample result (control properties with two-way binding as default)

System.Windows.Controls.TextBox : System.Windows.Controls.TextBox:Text
System.Windows.Controls.TextBox : System.Windows.Controls.TextSearch:Text
System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock : System.Windows.Controls.TextSearch:Text
System.Windows.Controls.Label : System.Windows.Controls.TextSearch:Text
System.Windows.Controls.ComboBox Items.Count:0 : System.Windows.Controls.ComboBox:IsDropDownOpen
System.Windows.Controls.ComboBox Items.Count:0 : System.Windows.Controls.ComboBox:Text
System.Windows.Controls.ComboBox Items.Count:0 : System.Windows.Controls.Primitives.Selector:SelectedIndex
System.Windows.Controls.ComboBox Items.Count:0 : System.Windows.Controls.Primitives.Selector:SelectedItem
System.Windows.Controls.ComboBox Items.Count:0 : System.Windows.Controls.Primitives.Selector:SelectedValue
System.Windows.Controls.ComboBox Items.Count:0 : System.Windows.Controls.TextSearch:Text
System.Windows.Controls.Button : System.Windows.Controls.TextSearch:Text

Interestingly, most controls have a TextSearch property which has two-way binding.
