How about overriding $.end() in the grid plugin, so that it returns the
original jquery object if it's run on the grid controller?

Of course, you'd have to remember to make $.end() behave normally if run
elsewhere.  Or, you could just create an $.endGrid() function for the
controller, and not worry about messing with $end() at all.
