Indeed, you were right regarding gtk_comb_box_set_entry_text_column().
For the record, below find a translation into C of your python program.
Here are some enhancements that I thought of, though I highly doubt that
they will be adapted because they are too specialized.
- Turn it into a

This happens e.g. when I'm using the up down arrows within the text
