+It is important to note that only the methods @gtk_list_store_insert_with_values and
+@gtk_list_store_insert_with_valuesv are atomic, in the sense that the row is being appended
+to the store and the values filled in in a single operation with regard to #GtkTreeModel signaling.
+In contrast, using e.g. @gtk_list_store_append and then @gtk_list_store_set will first create a row,
+which triggers the "row_inserted" #GtkTreeModel signal on #GtkListStore. The row, however, is still
+empty, and any signal handler connecting to "row_inserted" on this particular store should be prepared
+for the situation that the row might be empty.
+This is especially important if you are wrapping the #GtkListStore inside a #GtkTreeModelFilter and are
+using a #GtkTreeModelFilterVisibleFunc. Using any of the non-atomic operations to append rows to the #GtkListStore
+will cause the #GtkTreeModelFilterVisibleFunc to be visited with an empty row first; the function must be prepared for that.
