  This is not a bug. The tiling feature just doesn't exist yet. We are considering it for a future version of Silverlight.

  The reason why ImageBrush derives from an abstract TileBrush is to be future compatible in a way that would be consistent with WPF, when we add the tile mode to Silverlight in the future.

  Thanks, Stefan Wick

  To add to that, one can build a tiling pixel shader in Silverlight 3 today. It should be pretty straightforward to implement.
