How can I show a context menu when right clicking on QTreeWidgetItem?

I have a QTreeWidget, which is populated with QTreeWidgetItems. How do I setup a handler so that when a user right clicks on each tree item, different context menus can be shown?

Many thanks, I tried a few things like the contextMenuPolicy but that only appears to work on the QTreeWidget itself, not its actual items.

override contextEvent() and feed the pos() of the event to the QTreeWidget's itemAt() to find out which tree item you right-clicked.

This doesn't work because the event doesn't get fired when right clicking on a tree item, only when right clicking on the header of the tree widget.

Any other suggestions on this? There must be an easy way to do this no? I can't imagine nobody is showing right click context sensitive menus in QT apps.
