VS: crash or hang when accessing F# Text Editor options

[majocha]

Current main installed on 17.10 preview 2:

Repro steps

Open settings, go to Text Editor -> F# -> Advanced ( or any other F# page).

VS either hangs or crashes and restarts.

Attempting to debug this in experimental instance I get:

Managed Debugging Assistant 'FatalExecutionEngineError' : 'The runtime has encountered a fatal error. The address of the error was at 0x423bffe8, on thread 0x763c. The error code is 0x80131623. This error may be a bug in the CLR or in the unsafe or non-verifiable portions of user code. Common sources of this bug include user marshaling errors for COM-interop or PInvoke, which may corrupt the stack.'

I've seen this as well.

Possibly it's some VS platform / WPF bug.
It happens around setting DataContext for the view, the options window just breaks:

Original version released with 17.10 preview i.e:
Visual F# Tools 17.10.0-beta.24127.3+b57dee7cec971021547a7b8a36a46d7271fea99e
works fine.

I bet it's translation.
