That's what you have to do. If there were a gtk_tree_model_move() then
it would just do that for you (though it might be possible to avoid
the copy). You can also write a custom GtkTreeModel of course.

No but you shouldn't need it. (Removing the model from the view,
changing the model, putting the model back would be fairly equivalent,
but is probably a bad idea.)
