How come the "edited" signal is not useful ?

You want to catch *every* change while the user is editing a cell ?

This can be done, but it kind of changes the way cell editing usually
works, i.e. pressing escape, or losing editor focus while editing a text
cell is generally supposed to "cancel" the current edit, hence usually
you wait until the "edited" signal is fired in order to commit any changes
to the underlying model.

If you need to handle every keystroke, then connect to the "editing-started"
signal of a GtkCellRendererText for example, the GtkCellEditable widget will
in this case be a GtkEntry (which will exist for the duration of the edit), then
you can connect to the "changed" signal of this entry.

Note also, this list is about development of GTK+ itself, you should direct
your questions about using GTK+ to gtk-app-devel-list instead.
