    !%Description
    !% When this block is given (and the <tt>KPoints</tt> block is not present),
    !% <i>k</i>-points are distributed in a uniform grid, according to a modified
    !% version of the Monkhorst-Pack scheme. For the original MP scheme, see
    !% James D. Pack and Hendrik J. Monkhorst,
    !% <i>Phys. Rev. B</i> <b>13</b>, 5188 (1976) and <i>Phys. Rev. B</i> <b>16</b>, 1748 (1977).
    !%
    !% The number of columns should be equal to <tt>Dimensions</tt>,
    !% but the grid and shift numbers should be 1 and zero in finite directions.
    !%
    !% The first row of the block is a set of integers defining
    !% the number of <i>k</i>-points to be used along each direction
    !% in reciprocal space. The numbers refer to the whole Brillouin
    !% zone, and the actual number of <i>k</i>-points is usually
    !% reduced exploiting the symmetries of the system.  By default
    !% the grid will always include the <math>\Gamma</math>-point.
    !%
    !% Optional rows can be added to specify multiple shifts in the <i>k</i>-points (between 0.0 and 1.0),
    !% in units of the Brillouin zone divided by the number in the first row.
    !% Please note that without specifying any shift, an implicit shift of -0.5 is added for odd number
    !% of k-points, such that the Gamma point is always included.
    !%
    !% For example, the following input samples the BZ with 100 points in the
    !% <i>xy</i>-plane of reciprocal space:
    !%
    !% <tt>%KPointsGrid
    !% <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;10 | 10 | 1
    !% <br>%</tt>
    !%
