    I am currently using Playa and Matrix to manage multiple relationships and a gallery of images.

    I am at 2.5.5 and contemplating upgrading to 2.7. I looked at the changelog and I saw the new Relationship fieldtype that support multiple relationships and the Grid fieldtype.

    Are these new fieldtypes robust enough to replace those?

    UPDATE: I think I might have been too general/vague in my description. To clear things up, these are 3 features that I need that I am not sure is doable in Relationship/Grid

    A radio button that is a “is_default” field. This means that it should be aware of the other radio buttons in other rows in that there should only be one checked radio button at all times
    Pagination support for Grid
    Multiple relationships field inside Grid. I am aware that the new Relationship fieldtype supports multiple relationships now but the question is if it is available inside Grid
