Todd Volkert commented on PIVOT-276:
------------------------------------

Flex calls it a TileList.  Borrowing from that theme of ideas, we could also 
consider TileView, which would be more consistent with our naming conventions...

> Add a GridView component

> GridView would be a data-driven component like ListView or TableView, but 
> would arrange items in a 2-dimensional grid instead of in rows (similar to 
> "icon view" in Windows Explorer or Mac OS X Finder). It would provide an 
> orientation property that would dictate which way items would be laid out: a 
> horizontal grid view would arrange items left to right, and a vertical grid 
> view would arrange them top to bottom.
> GridView would assume a fixed renderer size, and would report preferred size 
> based on orientation: e.g. the preferred size of a horizontal grid view would 
> be (n * renderer width) x (renderer height). Constraining the preferred width 
> of a horizontal grid view would cause the items to wrap at the end of each 
> row; constraining the preferred height of a grid view would cause items to 
> wrap at the end of each column.
