WPF ListView Focus ListViewItem

Question

I have a Model-View-ViewModel implemented for a searchable ListBox. My Xaml looks like this:

(Please ignore the fact what I'm doing inside, it's just for test purposes)

<ListView  ItemsSource="{Binding Path=People}"  >
    <ListView.ItemTemplate>
       <DataTemplate>
           <Border>                                
               <TextBox Text="{Binding Path=Name, Mode=OneWay}" IsEnabled="{Binding Path=IsEnabled}"                                  
                    Background="{Binding Path=SelectedBackground, Mode=OneWay}"/>
           </Border>
       </DataTemplate>
    </ListView.ItemTemplate>
 </ListView>

The only one missing thing is something like IsFocused. Problem is that such a property doesn't exist. And I dont want to attach Event Handlers on the ListView, I just want my Code behind empty (except InitializeControls())

Any Idea? Should I use another Control for this purpose?
