why some WPF controls do not appear in the toolbox

Some WPF control do not appear in the toolbox panel in the visual studio 2008 sp1, like webbrowser.
Is this by design?
Some controls were added in WPF version 4 (Visual Studio 2010). For example, WebBrowser. That is why it does not show up in Visual Studio 2008 (which supports only upto WPF 3.5 SP1).
