There's no plans to use proj 7's built in auto grid download. This isn't designed for GUI applications like QGIS -- if we did, we'd get UI hangs all over the place while QGIS is trying to transform coordinates, and proj blocks and waits for the download to occur. What we should instead do is just fire up a background task on first install to download ALL THE GRIDS FOR EVERYWHERE form the proj CDN and install them locally. Problem solved....
