• Selection Check Boxes: Sometimes the grid appears to re-draw itself, almost as if it's refreshing, although it doesn't actually change the data displayed. When this happens, any row selection is lost – irritating if trying to select multiple items. It frequently happens shortly after the grid is first displayed, but also sometimes happens later on.
• The Re-Drawing Issue: While on the subject, this re-drawing frequently happens shortly after first displaying the grid. Sometimes a 'thinking' symbol appears and the grid isn't usable. However the complete list is displayed and doesn't change after this, so it seems an unnecessary waste of time.
• Selection Check Boxes: It's too easy to click the edge of the check box, and end up opening the item instead of selecting it. If it's not possible to widen the 'click zone' for the check box, perhaps set the grid up so that clicking anywhere on that cell doesn't 'open' the item.
