Maybe you should be using a Combo anyway.

But, some people agree and there has been some talk of adding simple
convenience functions to make the simpler cases easier. However, I don't know
if anybody is working on that now.

Personally, I think that gtkmm's Gtk::TreeView API shows that it can be much
simpler
http://www.gtkmm.org/gtkmm2/docs/tutorial/html/ch08s02.html#id2880668
because the details of the TreeViewColumn, CellRenderer, CellRenderer
attribute and CellRenderer data-changed callback can be guessed automatically
most of the time.
