Using the keyboard to save items works inconsistently. When editing an item, hitting enter seems to save the change as expected. When inserting an item, however, the item is lost.

ADMIN EDIT
Tthe grid calls the OnUpdate handler again, not OnCreate which results in data loss - the newly inserted item is unlikely to match existing data and so it appears to be lost.
Workaround - call the OnCreate handler yourself when the ID of the record is the default for its type - for example, zero for an integer. This indicates a newly inserted record in the grid.
