Please add support for start and end of the item set in the GridRenderer, so that the HtmlTableGridRenderer can render the <tbody> tag.

I was able to implement this by modifying the GridRenderer.RenderItems() method like so:

protected virtual void RenderItems()
{
RenderBodyStart();

bool isAlternate = false;
foreach(var item in DataSource)
{
RenderItem(new GridRowViewData<T>(item, isAlternate));
isAlternate = !isAlternate;
}

RenderBodyEnd();
}

And making the following additions:

To GridRenderer:

protected abstract void RenderBodyStart();
protected abstract void RenderBodyEnd();

To HtmlTableGridRenderer:

protected override void RenderBodyStart()
{
RenderText("<tbody>");
}

protected override void RenderBodyEnd()
{
RenderText("</tbody>");
}
