The sample code below (heavily influenced from here) has a right-click context menu that will appear as the user clicks the cells in the table. Is it possible to have a different right-click context menu for right-clicks in the header of the table? If so, how can I change the code to incorporate this?

Turned out to be simpler than I thought. In the same manner as I add the popup menu for the QTableView widget itself, I can just get the header from table object and then attach a context menu in the same way as I did with the regular context menu.
headers = self.tv.horizontalHeader()
headers.setContextMenuPolicy(Qt.CustomContextMenu)
headers.customContextMenuRequested.connect(self.header_popup)
