Summary: wm_attributes doesn't take keyword arguments

Initial Comment:
The Tk wm attributes command takes option arguments
(from the Tk wm manual page):

   wm attributes window ?option value option value...?

And option arguments are normally given with keyword
arguments in Tkinter (most if not all widget creation
functions and widget commands).  The attached patch
changes the wm_attributes method to take keyword
arguments, so top.wm_attributes(alpha=.8) will work as
expected (on Windows XP and Mac OS X).

This is an incompatible change. I also don't see the point;

top.wm_attributes('alpha',.8)

should work just fine, no?
