g_signal_connect_before doesn't exists because the documentation of
g_signal_connect says:

Connects a GCallback<http://library.gnome.org/devel/gobject/2.6/gobject-Closures.html#GCallback>function
to a signal for a particular object.

The handler will be called before the default handler of the signal.

As far as I've seen gtkmm there is no connect_before() also there, but there
is a boolean flag "after"... Anyway it seems that none of the widget
involved (textview, scrolledwindow, verticalscrollbar) receive
"key-press-event" nor "key-release-event" so connecting it before or after
the default handler will not change the behaviour...
