You could try calling QAbstractItemView.edit() with the model index
corresponding to the cell you want to edit. For example:

  tv = QTableView()
  sm = QStandardItemModel(5, 5)
  tv.setModel(sm)
  tv.edit(sm.index(2, 2, QModelIndex()))

That may not give keyboard focus to the cell itself, so you may also need
to take a look at QWidget.setFocus(), calling the tree view's setFocus()
method to make sure that the user can just start typing as soon as the
cell becomes editable.
