PageOf
Fixed a defect in the PageOf component that threw an exception if it was on not visible (@visible=false).
XMLDataSource
Now supports the use of {item:...} as a binding expression so the data value can be dynamically set from the Items collection in the document.
(XMLDataSource must be databound before any references try to use it.)
Choose / Otherwise - updated the schema to support any document component type, rather than schema warnings for anything that was not a top level visual component.
Image
Now supports the use of binding expressions onto the img-data attribute, so images can be dynamically assigned from binding expresssions (for Xml binding requires a Base64 encoded bitmap).
