Hello Madzie,
The suggestion in the mentioned forum thread was intended for the Kendo UI Grid.
We discontinued support for the MVC Extensions in 2013, after an officially announced one-year transition period. My recommendation is to leave all existing legacy implementation as is and use only Kendo UI for development from now on.
Regards,
