The focus stuff isn't in the treeview class.  It's inherited from the
gtk.Widget and gtk.Object base classes.  Inherited methods can be hard
to find in pygtk if you don't know where in hierarchy to look.

You should check if gtk.Object.flags() method and the gtk.HAS_FOCUS
flag or the gtk.Widget.is_focus() method gives you what you need.
