The full dissector (tree != NULL) is run if you have a color filter or
a plugin filter. There isn't anything you can to to short circuit the
full dissection !! 

I don't know enough about GtkCList, but I would rather see the color
filtering done when a row is exposed. Does GtkCList have an expose event
for the rows ?

This doesn't solve the issue with plugin filter, but it's a start.
