In WPF, Selecting ItemContainerStyle based on data bound content - wpf

Question

In #WPF you have ItemTemplateSelectors. But, can you also select an ItemContainerStyle based on the datatype of a bound object?
I am databinding a scatterview. I want to set some properties of the generated ScatterViewItems based on the object in their DataContext. A mechanism similar to ItemTemplateSelector for styles would be great. Is that at all possible? I am now binding to properties in the objects that I am displaying to get the effect, but that feels like overhead and too complex (and most importantly, something that our XU designers can't do by themselves).
This is the XAML that I am using now. Your help is greatly appreciated.
<s:ScatterView x:Name="topicsViewer">
<s:ScatterView.ItemTemplateSelector>
<local:TopicViewerDataTemplateSelector>
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type mvc:S7VideoTopic}">
<Grid>
<ContentPresenter Content="{Binding MediaElement}" />
<s:SurfaceButton Visibility="{Binding MailToVisible}" x:Name="mailto" Tag="{Binding Titel}" Click="mailto_Click" HorizontalAlignment="Right" VerticalAlignment="Top" Background="Transparent" Width="62" Height="36">
<Image Source="/Resources/MailTo.png" />
</s:SurfaceButton>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Height="32">
<s:SurfaceButton Tag="{Binding MediaElement}" x:Name="btnPlay" Click="btnPlay_Click">
<Image Source="/Resources/control_play.png" />
</s:SurfaceButton>
<s:SurfaceButton Tag="{Binding MediaElement}" x:Name="btnPause" Click="btnPause_Click">
<Image Source="/Resources/control_pause.png" />
</s:SurfaceButton>
<s:SurfaceButton Tag="{Binding MediaElement}" x:Name="btnStop" Click="btnStop_Click">
<Image Source="/Resources/control_stop.png" />

<Setter Property="s:ScatterViewItem.CanScale" Value="{Binding CanScale}" />
<Setter Property="s:ScatterViewItem.CanRotate" Value="{Binding CanRotate}" />
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Transparent" />
</Style>
</s:ScatterView.ItemContainerStyle>
</s:ScatterView>

How about using a ItemContainerStyleSelector (duh!)... Sorry, it's been a long night
