I'm looking for the same exact feature and the fact that you have no responses is troubling. Of course I can make my own button somewhere else in the UI to accomplish the expand/collapse all functionality but the column header position you show seems to be logical place to put it and I don't see any reason why this shouldn't be default functionality with the ability to enable disable the feature. Please let me know if you have made any progress on this yourself and I'll do the same.

I've entered a request for this feature in PITS but after doing so I don't see it in my searches and I was given no form of link or confirmation to ensure that it actually was entered into the system successfully. When submitting it said it was successful however. I guess we will juts have to wait and see.

Did you ever get a response to this issue?  If not I found a simple (though not elegant) solution.  All I did was follow the GridView with a RadExpander and it displays on top of the grid. 

<telerik:RadGridView x:Name="AccountGroupsGridView"

                     ToolTip="Expand Collapse All Groups">
</telerik:RadExpander>

Just call GridView.ExpandAllGroups and GridView.CollapseAllGroups in the Expander handlers.  I created an Expander Style to mimic the style of the Group Row.  You can see the result in the attached image
