In using the 2010.2 930 version of the extensions for MVC, it appears the grid is using the Name property of DisplayAttributes instead of the ShortName property. According to the MSDN documentation [1], the ShortName "Gets or sets a value that is used for the grid column label." This makes it possible to allow grid column headers to have a different value than the labels in the UI.
If you can confirm, would it be possible to modify the property that is used in a future version?

Hello Cory Deppen,
Atanas Korchev

I made a search for the DisplayAttribute in our code base but I couldn't find any. Could you please clarify? Where are we using the DisplayAttribute? We are currently using DisplayNameAttribute and DisplayFormatAttribute.

I can understand why the MVC 2 assembly wouldn't include support for DisplayAttribute, but it sounds like the MVC 3 assembly you have available should support it.
"The [Display] attribute is new in DataAnnotations v4, so MVC 2 can't use it because we're compiled against DataAnnotations v3.5. Use [DisplayName] instead until MVC 3, where we will be compiled against DataAnnotations v4." [1]
Considering the additional properties like ShortName included on DisplayAttribute, would it be possible to get support for DisplayAttribute in the next release of the MVC 3 assembly? This should definitely allow grids on MVC 3 views to take greater advantage of DataAnnotations in .NET 4.
