Looks like the event is not passed to the Entry. Pressing "return" in the entry should definetly fire an edited event. Although I have no idea how to handle key events in Gtk, is it possible that you have overriden some sort of OnKeyPress method in the TreeView? If you don't call base.OnKeyPress the TreeView will never get notified about the pressed key; if the Entry is a child widget if the TreeView it may not receive the event as well.
But that's just pure speculation. If you really want to bring light into the dark, you should have a look into the the Gtk+ code of the entry or create your own class derived from Gtk.CellRendererText, override the OnEditingStartedMethod, call base.OnEditingStarted from this context and attach some useful signal handlers to the returned entry of the base method to see whether it gets an event when "return" is pressed.
