As far as the code is concerned, there are some internal names in use
that may be useful for setting on a name for use by the documentation.
The copy tag interface (/eg/staff/admin/local/asset/copy_tag) is what
I'm using as an example since the grid there uses all of the UI
widgets I'm about to refer to.

Going by CSS class names in particular:

* The button(s) on the left ("New Record") in this example are "grid
menu items".
* The set of of widgets that include the paging buttons the Actions
menu (if present) and column configuration drop-down is the "column
picker"
* The items in the Actions drop-down are "grid actions"
* The whole row, including grid menu item and the column picker is the
"action row".

I offer these in case they are helpful; I do /not/ suggest that the
documentation need to follow the CSS class names.

Regards,

Galen
