How to show a waitcursor when the WPF application is busy databinding

Isak’s answer did not work for me, because it did not solve the problem of how to act when the actual wait is over for the user.
I ended up doing this: Everytime I start doing something timeconsuming, I call a helper-method. This helper method changes the cursor and then creates a DispatcherTimer that will be called when the application is idle. When it is called it sets the mousecursor back:

/// <summary>
///   Contains helper methods for UI, so far just one for showing a waitcursor
/// </summary>
public static class UiServices
{

     /// <summary>
     ///   A value indicating whether the UI is currently busy
     /// </summary>
     private static bool IsBusy;

     /// <summary>
     /// Sets the busystate as busy.
     /// </summary>
     public static void SetBusyState()
     {
          SetBusyState(true);
     }

     /// <summary>
     /// Sets the busystate to busy or not busy.
     /// </summary>
     /// <param name="busy">if set to <c>true</c> the application is now busy.</param>
     private static void SetBusyState(bool busy)
     {
          if (busy != IsBusy)
          {
               IsBusy = busy;
               Mouse.OverrideCursor = busy ? Cursors.Wait : null;

               if (IsBusy)
               {
                   new DispatcherTimer(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(0), DispatcherPriority.ApplicationIdle, dispatcherTimer_Tick, Application.Current.Dispatcher);
               }
          }
     }

     /// <summary>
     /// Handles the Tick event of the dispatcherTimer control.
     /// </summary>
     /// <param name="sender">The source of the event.</param>
     /// <param name="e">The <see cref="System.EventArgs"/> instance containing the event data.</param>
     private static void dispatcherTimer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
     {
          var dispatcherTimer = sender as DispatcherTimer;
          if (dispatcherTimer != null)
          {
              SetBusyState(false);
              dispatcherTimer.Stop();
          }
     }
}
