How can I add a widget in a QTableWidget header?

Hi!

I've got a QTableWidget with a lots of comboboxes inside it.

Here is a minimal example.

import sys

from PySide6.QtCore import Qt
from PySide6.QtWidgets import (
    QApplication,
    QComboBox,
    QTableWidget,
)

app = QApplication(sys.argv)

headers = ["Country", "City", "Road"]
countries = ["France", "England", "Spain"]
cities = ["Paris", "London", "Madrid"]
roads = ["Elysées", "Picadily circus", "Prado"]


def get_combo(input_l: list[str]) -> QComboBox:
    combo = QComboBox()
    for item in input_l:
        combo.insertItem(10, item)
    combo.setCurrentText(input_l[0])
    return combo


def fill_in_table(input_table: QTableWidget, N: int) -> None:
    for row in range(N):
        input_table.setCellWidget(row, 0, get_combo(countries))
        input_table.setCellWidget(row, 1, get_combo(cities))
        input_table.setCellWidget(row, 2, get_combo(roads))


table = QTableWidget()
table.setSortingEnabled(True)
table.horizontalHeader().setSortIndicator(0, Qt.SortOrder.AscendingOrder)
table.setColumnCount(len(headers))
table.setRowCount(10)
fill_in_table(table, 10)

table.setHorizontalHeaderLabels(headers)

table.show()
app.exec()

I want to add a filter combobox in a header. A kind of l menu to select "France" rows.
I saw a QTableWidgetItem can be provided to fill-in a header, but I can't include a widget...

Is it possible to achieve that?

Thanks for your help!
