You could subclass CellRendererText and override the start_editing method.
In your subclass start_editing method, call the superclass start_editing
method with the passed in parameters.  This returns the editable in the
cell, which you can then set properties on.  Return the editable when your
done.

However, while this is simple in pygtk (and in gtkmm?), it might be a
a bit challenging in C.
