Answer 1

You will have to write data templates for your various field data types so that WPF will chose how to display your data depending on its type. something of this format:

NOTE: This is not WPF just pseudo code

It doesn't have to be a primitive type. It can be an Email, DateApproved or even a Url class type. e.g.

class Customer  
{
   public Email Email{get;set;}
   public DateTime DateApproved{get;set;}
   public URI Url{get;set;}
}

public class Email 
{
   public string Type{get;set;}
   public string Value{get;set;} 
} 

..etc...
