The main (if not only) difference is that Datagrid has a fixed header/footer and a scrolling area for data (and thus is a RequiresResize), whereas CellTable generates a single grid with headers, data and footers (and thus has to be put inside a ScrollPanel to handle overflow, and then the headers and footers can scroll along with the data, and outside the viewport).
