Without wanting to confuse things, I'd like to point out an alternative
approach: set the context menu policy and connect the widget's
customContextMenuRequested(const QPoint &) signal to a slot somewhere
in another object.

Something like this should do the trick:

  widget.setContextMenuPolicy(Qt.CustomContextMenu)
  self.connect(widget, SIGNAL("customContextMenuRequested (const QPoint &)"),
               self.mySlotToCreateTheMenu)
