Sorry, I did a quick search with bad choice of keywords.

Thanks, I didn't realize there's a "popup_menu" signal. After trying it, 
I find
that the signal "popup_menu" does not work with the GtkTreeView widget.

I notice the tests/testiconview program use the popup_menu signal
on GtkIconView widget as well, but its popup menu works only by
connecting to the button_press_event signal of GtkIconView widget.
If I comment out the button_press_event signal connection, the program
would fail to popup the menu. It actually rely on the event's position to
determine which icon is chosen.
