I see the REST API has the HtmlPopup resource ...
http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisserver/10.0/apis/rest/ms-htmlPopup.html

The only way I see to leverage this in Silverlight would be to use Html.Window.Navigate, which would be clunky.

Similar to configuring a layer in an mxd to use Html, like this ...
http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#//00s50000002r000000.htm

... I'd like an option to use Xaml instead of Html, maybe with a XamlPad type of interface.  When published the layer would appear through Rest as esriServerHTMLPopupTypeXaml.

The silverlight SDK could provide a class that uses XamlReader to load the Xaml and present it.

I guess the WPF runtime could also leverage this.

Thank you for your feedback. This suggestion will cause a change in the REST API so you might want to post there too.
