OK, mystery solved. I had to set the "empty row height" property of the datagrid (in the Inspector) to the height of the row template. As soon as I did that, all works fine.
I'm not sure why I needed to do that. The Datagrid manual includes this in its description of the dgProps["row height"]: "If this property is not set for a form whose 'fixed control height' is true then the record template group height is used." Anyway, I'm happy now.
