Rename confusing GridCheckBoxColumn

The GridCheckboxColumn for the Blazor Grid is simply confusing.

I think 99 % of the users assume the GridCheckboxColumn is intended to be used for boolean field types.

Functionality is very nice but naming could be e.g. "GridSelectionColumn" to clarify what's it's purpose.

Personnaly, I like GridRowSelectColumn or GridRowSelectionColumn.

Starts with Grid, end with Column and indicates the functionnality in the middle :)

I would personally go for GridRowSelectColumn, to put the important bit (row selection) earlier.

Let's see how the community (and management) respond to the idea (it already has my support).

I understand it's a breaking change, just wanted to bring it up to discussion when looking the third time if it is a mean to display boolean values ;-)

An even better naming would be "GridColumnRowSelection" as this really indicates what's the purpose

Hi Werner,

I agree with you that a GridSelectColumn would be a better name, but that would be a breaking change that needs to be approved by management and can only be made on a major release (such as 3.0.0) and we want to avoid breaking changes.

Nevertheless, I am not closing this so we can get some more feedback on whether people would prefer that.
