XAML intellisense not working for <StaticResource/>

I'm writing XAML/WPF and sometimes use object-element syntax to reference a static resource:

<StaticResource ResourceKey="theResourceKey"/>

This seems consistent with the StaticResource Markup Extension docs and is the only option I know of in some cases, e.g.:

<Transform3DGroup>
    <TranslateTransform3D OffsetX="0.5" OffsetY="0.5"/>
    <StaticResource ResourceKey="PlateScaleTransform"/>
</Transform3DGroup>

The problem is, I get no intellisense suggesting <StaticResource, but once I've typed it I do get intellisense suggesting ResourceKey="". Anyone have ideas why the former intellisense suggestion isn't working?

It has been long enough, I'm convinced it's a bug/omission. People can up-vote the problem report via the "Report a Problem" tool:
