We'll need to handle Item Selection when using the new ItemsRepeater

We had to revert this feature because the implementation was causing this issue #10983

Do you guys think this might be helpful?

It's for WPF but it would be interesting to see if it could be ported. Fyi @marcelwgn

We could have the textblocks wrap on their own, however I don't think GridView would be able to deal with one textblock being larger than others.

Would this feature of GridView that was mentioned over a decade ago help? https://supportcenter.devexpress.com/ticket/details/q346476/automatic-width-resizing-of-columns-in-gridcontrol-gridview

It seems there used to be a feature that would allow individual columns to size based on the width of the content of that column.

Would this feature of GridView that was mentioned over a decade ago help?

It would if it were supported in WinUI 3.
