Many of us are wondering (http://www.telerik.com/forums/dynamically-add-new-column) how to add new column to grid. I imagine it to work as column picker in TeamPulse (http://demos.telerik.com/teampulse-demo/view#backlog) For now we have two options: -destroy old grid and create new, but this way we must take care of bindings, event handling by ourselves. -hide unwanted columns at start and then show them when needed, but this way DOM will have unused elements. Ideally grid would reconfigure and add DOM for new column. Ext.JS has this build in (http://jsfiddle.net/marcusschiesser/GvGCX/)
