Nested Type Reference in Visual Studio 2008 XAML Designer

Question

With the following resource definition

<ObjectDataProvider MethodName="GetValues" ObjectType="{x:Type sys:Enum}" x:Key="AccountTypeValues">
    <ObjectDataProvider.MethodParameters>
        <x:Type TypeName="domain:Account+AccountType" />
    </ObjectDataProvider.MethodParameters>
</ObjectDataProvider>

the designer complains that the “Type” Account + Account Type “not found”. However, a nested type exists, and the code matches and works without problems. Because the designer believes that XAML is incorrect, it does not display a graphical representation of XAML.

What do I need to do to get the designer to recognize Account + AccountType as valid? I would really like the visual part of the designer to work.

Thanks Ben
