It's interface GridDataSource. What you may be missing is that Tapestry convieniently coerces java.util.List to GridDataSource for you. However if you connect the source parameter of the Grid component to an actual GridDataSource, you can have fine control over sorting and otherwise efficiently providing data to the Grid.
