Collapsing an item collapses all items and you can't expand them anymore when binding to IEnumerable<T> (works with List<T>)

The code below compiles and doesn't give any browser errors when run, but when you collapse a row, all data is collapsed and you can't expand it again.

If you change the line that generates the data to use a List instead of IEnumerable it will work as expected.

REPRODUCIBLE

<TelerikTreeList Data=Data
                 IdField="@nameof(Record.Id)"
                 ParentIdField="@nameof(Record.ParentId)"
                 Height="100%">
    <TreeListColumns>
        <TreeListCheckboxColumn CheckBoxOnlySelection="true" />
        <TreeListColumn Field="@nameof(Record.Text)" Title="" Expandable="true" />
        <TreeListColumn Field="@nameof(Record.Id)" Title="ID" />
        <TreeListColumn Field="@nameof(Record.ParentId)" Title="PARENT" />
    </TreeListColumns>
</TelerikTreeList>
@code {
    protected IEnumerable<Record> Data = new List<Record>();

    protected override void OnInitialized()
    {
        Data = Enumerable.Range(1, 10).Select(i => new Record(i));
    }

    public class Record
    {
        public Record(int i)
        {
            Id = i;
            if (i % 5 == 1)
                ParentId = null;
            else
                ParentId = (i - ((i - 1) % 5));
            Text = "Item " + i;
        }
        public long Id { get; set; }
        public long? ParentId { get; set; }
        public string Text { get; set; }
    }
} 

WORKAROUND

<TelerikTreeList Data=Data
                 IdField="@nameof(Record.Id)"
                 ParentIdField="@nameof(Record.ParentId)"
                 Height="100%">
    <TreeListColumns>
        <TreeListCheckboxColumn CheckBoxOnlySelection="true" />
        <TreeListColumn Field="@nameof(Record.Text)" Title="" Expandable="true" />
        <TreeListColumn Field="@nameof(Record.Id)" Title="ID" />
        <TreeListColumn Field="@nameof(Record.ParentId)" Title="PARENT" />
    </TreeListColumns>
</TelerikTreeList>
@code {
    protected List<Record> Data = new List<Record>();

    protected override void OnInitialized()
    {
        Data = Enumerable.Range(1, 10).Select(i => new Record(i)).ToList();
    }

    public class Record
    {
        public Record(int i)
        {
            Id = i;
            if (i % 5 == 1)
                ParentId = null;
            else
                ParentId = (i - ((i - 1) % 5));
            Text = "Item " + i;
        }
        public long Id { get; set; }
        public long? ParentId { get; set; }
        public string Text { get; set; }
    }
}

Hello,

This behavior was originally reported over X years ago and has not received significant demand or follow-up from the community since then. Considering this and the availability of a workaround, we are unable to prioritize it over more impactful and widely requested improvements.

If this limitation is still affecting your scenario, please share additional context or use cases. This will help us better assess the severity and reconsider prioritization in the future.

Regards,
