One way to get around this would be to omit the TreeSortable interface
and use TreeModelSort to do the sorting instead.  It doesn't look like
GenericTreeModel is designed to also support the TreeSortable
interface (you would need something like GenericTreeSortable since you
would need some magic to allow gobject inheritance from python.)
