I already did this way into an hash, then sorting the hash and
populating the treestore directly. The only matter is that I have
first to wait for hash completion (it is very long, more than 10000
rows) and only then show the treeview..

It would be nice to populate the treeview in real-time, while getting
the data, so the user should start viewing something while waiting...
