For me, a a good ( solid, loosly coupled ) approach would be something 
like this ( in the example of my first mail ):

<mx:Datagrid
   
    <mx:headers>
       <mx:DatagridRow>
            <mx:DatagridColumnGroup columns="2"  />
            <mx:DatagridColumnGroup columns="2" label="Personal data" 
backgroundColor="#FFFFFF" sortable="false" click="..." />
       </mx:DatagridRow>
       <mx:DatagridRow>
            <mx:DatagridColumnGroup columns="1" label="name" 
sortable="true" ...  />
            <mx:DatagridColumnGroup columns="1" label="value" 
sortable="true" ...  />
            <mx:DatagridColumnGroup columns="1" label="age" 
sortable="true" ...  />
            <mx:DatagridColumnGroup columns="1" label="money" 
sortable="true" ...  />
       </mx:DatagridRow>
       ...
    </mx:headers>
   
    <mx:columns>
       ....
    </mx:columns>
</mx:Datagrid>

So the idea is to separate the definition of the headers from the 
columns and tie columns with headers so that you can stretch them 
together etc

Thats a first idea.... sounds like an html table? mmmmm
