OK, I liberally scattered print expressions in setupTable and I think I've
figured out the problem.

In this line:
# Eeew! I'm touching tree's privates.
assert node._Node__editableText

If a node supports the Text interface but not the EditableInterface, then the
expression node._Node__editableText causes an AttributeError; the assertion
never gets a chance to fire.  Hence control passes into the  except
AttributeError: clause where the buffer for the GtkTextView is emptied, and you
never see the text.

I can write a patch for this but it's not clear what that whole signal thing is
meant to do.  Are you trying to suppress emission of the "changed" signal whilst
 changing the buffer yourself?  If so, there are ways to do this
