This is what I avoided by writing a tree widget for the TUI, I really
didn't want to traverse _all_ the hists just to show the ones that
appear in the screen.

Isn't there a way to ask GTK to ask a callback to provide a
representation for the Nth hist entry, i.e. just the ones it _needs_ to
render the screen?

Anyway, great to see this work!
