I confirm what you've found with GTK doesn't work properly with Cinnamon 
either.
I get the problem when I switch from pressing Enter on the TextBox to 
pressing the button and vice versa. Finally, as soon as the mouse 
touches the TextArea, the new text entries appear, which weren't visible 
before (despite the scroll bar appearing at the bottom of the window).
With QT, it works fine.
