Datagrids and Nested Behaviors

[Bob Sneidar]

<Sigh> belay all that. Apparently I have to get the behavior of the behavior of the ehavior of the datagrid. THAT seems to correctly return the id of the custom button. But the datagrids do not seem to work after a close and reopen of the stack, unless I use this workaround. So there is still something wrong with the nested behavior of a datagrid.
