Exactly that's the point: User experience!

People who are working with TemplaVoila have been forced into behaviours 
that are completely different from the default behaviour of the core 
modules. Now that they are used to this extension's deviant behaviour, 
we just can't take care of that while improving the user experience of 
the core itself.

The Grid View is NOT TemplaVoila - it's an improved page module that 
offers people to view the backend in a layout that can reflect their 
frontend layout or maybe another structure they need for their daily 
work. And it won't even work together with TV, since it's the working 
with the original page module only.

As I already explained, the behaviour of TV regarding inheritance of 
layouts is annoying, because it forces you into more steps than 
necessary to get to the same results. And it renders the TypoScript 
levelfield slide concept useless, because you always have to check two 
different fields in any record of the root line.

The goal of the T3UXW was to improve the overall usability and we have 
just kicked stuff people were used to in many places. Especially Jens 
encouraged us to just get rid of stuff we are used to and replace it 
with something better. While testing the results, first people 
complained, but then they noticed that it was easier to understand and 
faster to work with the new stuff.

This is why the Grid View will not just be a copy of old school TV 
behaviour but something new.

So my advice is: Get used to it and you will like it!

Cheers

Joey
