I've been working with the smartgrid since Massimo created it. The way I learned most about it was to open up sqlhtml.py in my editor and look through the source, primarily at the parameters that you can pass to it. There is a great deal of capability and flexibility build into it. So, I agree, not much documentation out there, but the source has all the answers. Also, I've found this group to be extremely helpful whenever you have questions...
