Here are two examples that will exhibit the behavior you desire:
my $combo = Gtk2::ComboBoxEntry->new;
$combo->signal_connect(changed => \&changed);
$combo->signal_connect('focus-out-event' => \&focus_out);
sub changed
{
my $combo = shift;
$combo->{changed} = TRUE;
}
sub focus_out
{
my $combo = shift;
# commit to database if $combo->{changed};
$combo->{changed} = FALSE;
}
my $combo = Gtk2::ComboBoxEntry->new;
$combo->signal_connect('focus-in-event' => \&focus_in);
$combo->signal_connect('focus-out-event' => \&focus_out);
sub focus_in
{
my $combo = shift;
$combo->{check} = $comb->get_active_text;
}
sub focus_out
{
my $combo = shift;
# commit to database if $combo->{check} ne $comb->get_active_text;
$combo->{check} = '';
}

Connect to the changed signal of its Entry child?
