On several of my usercontrols, I change the cursor by using

this.Cursor = Cursors.Wait;

when I click on something.

Now I want to do the same thing on a WPF page on a button click. When I hover over my button, the cursor changes to a hand, but when I click it, it doesn't change to the wait cursor. I wonder if this has something to do with the fact that it's a button, or because this is a page and not a usercontrol? This seems like weird behavior.
