Change the FocusVisualStyle in the entire application

Question

While making a WPF application I would like to change the default FocusVisualStyle (the black "marching ants" border) to something else, like for example a blue border. I would like to make this change for every control on the entire application. Is there an easier way then changing the default style for every type of control?

Thanks

Unfortunately there's no easy way to apply a style to all controls. The main issue is that by default WPF only allows one style per control.

You can get around this, but it requires redefining the styles of all the controls anyway.
