This can then be CSS'd of course, in the normal way.

The important point though, is that the number of cells in a grid should
be restricted to an agreed number (4?) AND most importantly, they cannot
be nested!  This would provide a solution to the often cumbersome markup
required to produce equal height columns, It would stop 'nestingitis' and - it would be semantic! It isn't really presentational either, any
more than <p> is . . .

I don't think that grid nor gridcell are semantic. In fact it doesn't
say anything about semantics just about presentation. It is an much
cleaner approach to set a div to display: table/table-cell (but the
wording should be changed to grid or something like that...) The div
doesn't imply any semantics either, just structure, but that is what
is needed in this case.

Yeah, that'd do fine. (I told you I was making it up as I went along . . . :-))
