Description
Please add functionality to set custom view (Component) when there is no data in the Grid. It's called "empty state" and is used to encourage user to enter data or explain why the grid is empty (e.g. due to filtering). It could be provided explicitly by setter or by lambda provider. I think it should leave header as is and be placed in rows space. Not sure about the footer.

Research direction
Start by locating the Grid component and its rendering path for an empty data set. Review how components are supplied and rendered in the rows area, then clarify the setter or lambda API and footer behavior; done means an empty Grid can show the custom view while preserving the header.
