Lookup field in Edit in Datasheet mode in sharepoint doesn't work

I've added a lookup field to a document library, and it is possible to choose values as expected in "Edit properties" for a single document. However, when in Edit in Datasheet mode all of the dropdowns for the lookup field are EMPTY!!!! Is this just the way it is, or have I done something wrong?

Has anyone managed to get lookup fields to work in Edit in Datasheet mode?

Required lookup fields do not show up in datasheet view. You need to make the lookup field optional.

I had the same problem with my fields defined as site columns. After opening and saving column definition in list, datasheet started to work perfectly...
