Style.Setter with Binding in Universal Windows Applications

As stated in the question below, Setters cannot contain Bindings in Windows RT/Phone 8.1

=> Binding SelectedItems in ListView to a ViewModel in Windows Phone 8.1

Has this changed in the new Universal Windows Applications?

Still not Bindings in values?

    See the below article - it provides a "helper" that allows to bind to the DataContext with a Setter.
