Silverlight ObservableCollection with AddRange

Silverlight is when you have to add a lot of items.
I know, I know maybe you should choose another way to show that data,
but leaving philosophical-ui design discussions, the real problem is that
usually those components are bind  to ObservableCollections.

ObservableCollections are a bit of an exhibitionist.
Each time you add an item it will yell

Hey!! Yoo-hoo! HEY!!! YOU!!
I'm HEREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
Look at me!! Look at Me!!! Look Mom No Hands!!! Look Dad no Feet!!! HEY!!!!!!!!

So if you have some code like:

for(int i=0;i<10000;i++)
{
    comboItems.Add("item" + i);
}

A nice thing will be to be able to do something like:

var items = new String[10000] 
for(int i=0;i<10000;i++) 
{ 
    items[i]="item" + i; 
} 
comboItems.AddRange(items); 

And then provide just ONE notification of Collection Changed instead of a lot of
little cries for attention.

Well that is the reason for this new version of ObservableCollection that I call
RangeObservableCollection:

using System;
using System.Collections.ObjectModel;
using System.Collections.Generic;

namespace Utils
{
    public class RangeObservableCollection<T> : ObservableCollection<T>
    {
        private bool _suppressNotification = false;

        public RangeObservableCollection() : base() { }

        public RangeObservableCollection(IEnumerable<T> collection) : base(collection) { }

        protected override void OnPropertyChanged(System.ComponentModel.PropertyChangedEventArgs e)
        {
            if (!_suppressNotification) base.OnPropertyChanged(e);
        }

        protected override void OnCollectionChanged(System.Collections.Specialized.NotifyCollectionChangedEventArgs e)
        {
            if (!_suppressNotification)
                base.OnCollectionChanged(e);
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// Adds a collection suppressing notification per item and just raising a notification
        /// for the whole collection
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="list"></param>
        public void AddRange(IEnumerable<T> list)
        {
            if (list == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("list");
            _suppressNotification = true;
            foreach (T item in list)
            {
                Add(item);
            }
            _suppressNotification = false;
            OnCollectionChanged(new System.Collections.Specialized.NotifyCollectionChangedEventArgs(System.Collections.Specialized.NotifyCollectionChangedAction.Reset));
        }

    }
    
}
