Sending the View itself as a Behavior's CommandParameter

[Cfun1]

It seems not possible to bind the object itself implementing the behavior as a CommandParameter, tried binding with FindAncestor and Self and both didn't work, I see the only option in this case is to set a x:Name and Source="{x:Reference name}" which I prefer not to use.

Reference

xamarin/Xamarin.Forms#8584

When this could be needed ?

When you have some attached properties to your View and you want to access them in the behavior Command logic.

jBijsterboschNL any ideas other then sending it as reference? (I first came across this scenario when was using UserStoppedTypingBehavior :) )

@Cfun1 if we think about MVVM, we shouldn't pass the View as CommandParameter, because the VM shouldn't have anything of the View on it.

Good point, then I should think about a redesign.
