>I think you're right, and I think it's a limitation when they designed this feature.

I was playing with row highlighting myself the other day, and found something interesting.. I set the colors(and selected colors) of my gridtextbox baseclass to the highlight colors I was using, while the column colors stayed the same. I think I was having issues with AllowCellSelection which is why I ended up there. This idea also fails for Sparse; I think in that case the old Dynamic*Color IIF() is the only way to go.
