This is a bit of a problem to implement. The CollectionViewSource object required to group and sort the data does not initialize until the bound UI requests the CollectionViewSource.View.

I've tried to programmatically invoke the CVS to group the items, but it always results in a COM exception whenever attempting to read out any of the items.

Alternate solution

Manually group the data instead of using a CollectionViewSource. This will allow me to get the data once and re-use it across the app.
