Agreed. Here's a link to the demo: http://www.trirand.com/jqgrid35/jqgrid.html
jqGrid is great. I started porting it into the themeroller as well
and ran into this alternate line class issue.

Until an alternate row class can be added to the UI theme, using the
ui-priority-secondary class is an alternative (pun intended!). The ui-
priority-secondary class merely set opacity to 0.7. This, however,
affects the hover class as well. But, at least it's an option.
Applying this on the jqGrid demo page (via firebug) gives you an idea:
jQuery(”.ui-jqgrid-btable tr:odd”, “#tabs”).addClass(”ui-priority-
secondary”);
It’s not very noticeable on the lighter color themes though.

We'll definitely be adding this once jQuery UI has a grid plugin, but
we can't promise that we'll add the class before the plugin.
