Bug Description

The property is merely constructing a Record from the id, and not populating the record fully from the database:
            rec = self.database.get_record(rec_id)

This is completely wrong and stupid. There is an easy workaround, as the selected_record_ids property works as expected and those ids can be used to retrieve records from the database.

Note that records can be added to the grid with an id "", and not saved to the database, which can happen if rows are appended with auto_save = False.

Proposed solution is to remove this property until it can be properly thought out and coded.
