Support MVVM in VS.NET Metro templates

MVVM is widely recognized as the best pattern for xaml-based projects.
Please change the vs.net templates so that they generate a basic skeleton of an MVVM project (adding subfolders for Views, Viewmodels, Behaviors, Converters)
Add also basic classes like the DelegateCommand and other tools commonly used for MVVM implementation.

        It would make sense to encourage new users to support a solid testable way of writing applications using MVVM. As a Silverlight developer I would like to see at least the support from SL5 available in Metro, but it seems more like SL3. Limited Commanding, Behaviours, Triggers and more DataBinding source options would be needed. It seems odd that seperation of concerns and IOC have been forgotten in Metro so far.
