The dgProps["control type"] for a datagrid returns "data grid" and I've seen various places in the IDE code that uses that to detect a datagrid (like trying to ungroup one). I guess you could create a property like that in other groups if you wanted them to be treated the same as datagrids but it feels like that would be pretty dangerous.
