I would also like an answer to the first part of the question, but changing it to selecting the first item is relatively easy:
On the grid's dataBound event, do the following:
grid.select($("gridName tbody>tr").not(".k-grouping-row").first());
(The .not() can be removed if the grid isn't groupable).
Again, I'd much prefer a way to maintain the currently selected item, but I'm not entirely sure how.
EDIT: A bit of playing around and I was able to come up with the following:
In a variable somewhere that won't go out of scope between events, store grid.select().text(); on Grid Changed.
On dataBound, do the following:
grid.select($("tr:contains('" + variableName + "')"));
Probably not the most efficient solution, but it works.
