If you can live with tab-delimited instead of comma delimited, the TSV format does exactly what you want (it actually downloads with a .csv extension, so it will open up in Excel as is). If you need CSV, perhaps you could copy the gluon.sqlhtml.ExportTSV class and just change the delimiter to a comma. Note, the HTML download also uses represent.
Also, outside of the grid, if you want to use represent in CSV exports, you can do rows.export_to_csv(..., represent=True).
