Grid support for binding a field to and array (model field that is an array)
Some of us use custom cell editors with multiple checkboxes (or other multiple inputs) and right now we can't use the data-bind syntax to automatically update the model when the user moves away from the cell. We also can't use the grid's "save" event because it won't fire.
Please add support for the grid column to bind to arrays, OR at least let us specify in the model or grid declaration that we want the "save" event to fire (even when you wouldn't normally do it).  This event would allow us to manually get the values of all checkboxes and update the model.

Hello,

Having a field which is a complex object is generally not supported in the grid and there are no plans to integrate such a solution. That said if there is a specific case which we can revise I suggest opening a formal support ticket and providing the code and details on it, so we could check it. If it is common enough we can create a resource that handles that case so other developers can benefit from it.
