Summary: Tix.Grid widgets not implemented yet

Initial Comment:
This code fails at the .pack method (.grid, .place too):

>>> import Tix
>>> r=Tix.Tk()
>>> g=Tix.Grid()
>>> g.pack()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "d:\PY.24\lib\lib-tk\Tkinter.py", line 1692, in 
pack_configure
    self.tk.call(
_tkinter.TclError: bad window path name ".8257088"

Tix Grids work though as shown here:

>>> r.tk.call('tixGrid', '.g1')
'.g1'
>>> r.tk.call('pack', '.g1')
''
>>> r.tk.call('.g1', 'set', '0', '0', '-text', 'hello!')
''

I intend to supply a patch, but I need to first 
understand better how Tkinter works (and therefore 
Tix.py); I create a bug so that anyone willing might help 
provide Python users with an often requested widget.
