What we are doing in gimp (plug-ins/dbbrowser/dbbrowser_utils.c) is
the following:
dbbrowser->store = gtk_list_store_new (2, G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_STRING);
gtk_tree_view_set_model (GTK_TREE_VIEW (dbbrowser->tv),
GTK_TREE_MODEL (dbbrowser->store));
g_object_unref (dbbrowser->store);
/* fill the store */
gtk_tree_sortable_set_sort_column_id (GTK_TREE_SORTABLE (dbbrowser->store),
0, GTK_SORT_ASCENDING);
The views keeps alive and the new store is filled reasonably fast and
sorted afterwards.
