Grid should optionally select entire when navigable is enabled
The Grid should optionally select an entire row instead of individual cells within a row.

Use Case:
In my app, the cells are all read-only. Below just about every grid in the app is a details view (showing the selected grid row) and I want them to have up/down keyboard navigation on every grid within the app. This should be a simple configuration setting but there is currently no easy way to get this behavior.

This scenario can be supported if you choose selectable = row setting for the grid, and select grid rows using SPACE keyboard key after you navigate to the relevant row. 

Note, however, that the keyboard navigation applies focus state for the grid row cells and does not select the actual row they belong to. Here is a quick demo which illustrates this behavior:

(use SPACE to select rows after you navigate between cells)
