Adding more than one child to a WPF StatusBar results in poor layout with little option to customize. For example, this code:

<StatusBar>
    <StatusBarItem>
        <TextBlock>Ready</TextBlock>
    </StatusBarItem>
    <StatusBarItem>
        <TextBlock>Set</TextBlock>
    </StatusBarItem>
</StatusBar>

Results in:

alt text

This is not the ideal layout, since the "Set" is squeezed right up against the "Ready".

How do I gain full control over the layout of the WPF StatusBar control?
