Thanks for the timely warning. :)
A related question: Are the Rolleigrid lenses Rolleicord
version
specific, i.e. is there a Rolleicord II Rolleigrid and a
Rolleicord IV
Rolleigrid, or are they (where they apply) universally
applicable?

The only one I am familiar with is for the non-removable
screens in the post war Rollei Automat and Rolleicord. The
screen drops in and has small wedge shaped sections for the
retaining springs in the finder hood. These are the same
small springs that are used for the finder mask for the
Rolleikin. In fact, the Roleigrid and Rolleikin mask can't
be used together (Well I suppose one could but I think it
would stress the springs. The section of the focusing
screen used by the Rolleikin mask is small enough to have
relatively uniform brightness. Rollei may have made a
similar lens for the later cameras but I have no information
about that.
