KeyDown event regardless of selected control

Is there a way, short of adding the event for every single control, to have a KeyDown event that fires regardless of the selected control?

In WPF, you can use Keyboard.KeyDown or Keyboard.PreviewKeyDown, and subscribe on a container, not each element. The basic bubbling and tunneling routing strategies of the Routed Event will cause it to pass to the container properly.

For details, see To bubble or tunnel basic events on CodePlex.
