WPF: Globaly defined ValueConverter

Question

Is there a possibility to declare a IValueConverter for an application global, so that if a conversion in a Binding is needed, automatically the appropriate converter is used.

E.g.

I have written a IValueConverter that converts between int and MySpecialClass. I have a Binding that has a source that returns an instance of MySpecialClass and a target that is int.

With that globaly declared ValueConverter, the conversion will automatically be done without the need of a converter-declaration with the Converter-keyword in the Binding.

Does such a possibility exists?

I think you're looking for TypeConverters here.
