I know I can connect to "changed", but it would be inefficient on
long inputs as this would have to check the whole text on every typed
letter.

And the program I wrote is basically just a rewrite of sample GTK
program which does work. I'm wondering why it is not working - did I
make an error or is it a bug or what.
