❔ Avalonia ComboBox SelectedValuePath

<ComboBox SelectedValue="{Binding Path=SomeValue, Mode=TwoWay}" SelectedValuePath="Tag">
    <ComboBoxItem Tag="x">A</ComboBoxItem>
    <ComboBoxItem Tag="y">B</ComboBoxItem>
</ComboBox>

<ComboBox SelectedValue="{Binding Path=SomeValue, Mode=TwoWay}" SelectedValuePath="Tag">
    <ComboBoxItem Tag="x">A</ComboBoxItem>
    <ComboBoxItem Tag="y">B</ComboBoxItem>
</ComboBox>

Is there a way to do this in Avalonia?

<ComboBox SelectedValue="{Binding Theme, Mode=TwoWay}">
  <ComboBox.Items>
    <x:String>Light</x:String>
    <x:String>Dark</x:String>
  </ComboBox.Items>
</ComboBox>

<ComboBox SelectedValue="{Binding Theme, Mode=TwoWay}">
  <ComboBox.Items>
    <x:String>Light</x:String>
    <x:String>Dark</x:String>
  </ComboBox.Items>
</ComboBox>

I came up with this, but it's not localizable In WPF, you'd just do the following:

<ComboBox SelectedValue="{Binding Path=Theme, Mode=TwoWay}" SelectedValuePath="Tag">
  <ComboBoxItem Tag="Light" Content="{LocalizedBinding Light}" />
  <ComboBoxItem Tag="Dark" Content="{LocalizedBinding  Dark}" />
</ComboBox>

<ComboBox SelectedValue="{Binding Path=Theme, Mode=TwoWay}" SelectedValuePath="Tag">
  <ComboBoxItem Tag="Light" Content="{LocalizedBinding Light}" />
  <ComboBoxItem Tag="Dark" Content="{LocalizedBinding  Dark}" />
</ComboBox>

I've used a DynamicResource with resource dictionaries for each locale, so it can be changed in runtime without the need of restarting the app or you can you this https://dev.to/ingvarx/localization-in-avaloniaui-2mdm (https://github.com/IngvarX/Camelot/blob/master/src/Camelot/Services/Implementations/LanguageManager.cs)

Thank you, but that's not what I'm looking for I already implemented a working localization system, the issue is as described in the thread title.
