Vista - Binding, XPath & Namespaces

Binding, XPath & Namespaces

Does anyone know if its possible to use an XPath binding into XML that uses
namespaces?

For example, this doesn't work, because I haven't defined the namespaces:

<Grid>
<Grid.Resources>
<XmlDataProvider x:Key="data">
<data:root xmlns:data="http://data">
<data:item>blah</data:item>
</data:root>
</XmlDataProvider>
</Grid.Resources>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Source={StaticResource data}, XPath=/data:root/data:item}"
/>
</Grid>


Instead I get the exception:
XPathException:Namespace Manager or XsltContext needed. This query has a
prefix, variable, or user-defined function.

But, how can I provide it?
