If you actually want what it does.  Usually, I do not want that at all.

I want to recalculate and update something once user has finished
editing the value there (but not during the editing).  This means namely
when the entry loses focus, however, it should be also possible to
invoke the update without leaving the entry, by pressing Enter.  So,
instead of gtk_entry_set_activates_default() I use something like
set-activate-on-unfocus and then just handle activate.
