答案似乎是Ivan Krivyakov 的TabContent.IsCached attached property，在这个问题中找到：Turning off Virtualization for Tabcontrol without itemsource - WPF。这不是他问题的答案，而是我的答案。
在 XAML 中看起来像这样：
<TabControl
xmlns:ikriv="clr-namespace:IKriv.Windows.Controls.Behaviors"
ikriv:TabContent.IsCached="True"
ItemsSource="{Binding DocumentList.Documents}"
SelectedItem="{Binding DocumentList.ActiveDocument}"
/>
这是 Krivyakov 解决方案的完整源代码，以防 CodeProject 被小行星撞击：
