Returns a collection of the root level panes that are displayed with the
XamDockManager.
This example demonstrates how to initialize a XamDockManager with ContentPanes in the various supported states (e.g. floating, unpinned) and also creates a DocumentContentHost to provide a tabbed document ui similar to that of Visual Studio.
