That might work, but I'm thinking that the type coercer solution is more like "code once, fix every page", right? Or am I misunderstanding you reply? Could you provide some code example?
However, the question on how to replace an existing type coercer remains.

Why don't you just pass a GridDataSource directly instead of relying on having your collection coerced to it?
