In the Windows Store 8.1 (Preview) XAML/C# project I've got a ListView whose items host RadDataGrid instances that may have varying heights (depending on the content), which I want to limit to a maximum value.

The problem seems to be that:

If I don't specify any Height restriction in the ListView definition, the items in the list are rendered with dynamic heights, as expected.
If I specify only the MinHeight (for ListView.ItemContainerStyle with TargetType="ListViewItem"), the items in the list are still rendered with dynamic heights, as expected, with the minimum height respected.
But if I specify the MaxHeight similarly, all the list items are rendered with the same fixed height.

The similar observations can be made if I apply the MaxHeight to the RadDataGrid template directly (and not set it for the ListItems).
Hence this appears to be a problem with Telerik RadDataGrid and not the .NET Framework ListView.

Now, if I set the MaxHeight on the Border object that is an immediate child of the RadDataGrid (I do that in run time using XAML Spy), everything seems to be working as expected: the RadDataGrid's height is resolved dynamically until it reaches the MaxHeight value, and then the vertical scrollbar appears.

Please confirm if this is a known issue, if it is planned to be resolved in the October release of Telerik Controls, and if there is a recommended workaround.
