Actually, the fact that wxPython does NOT have such a canvas widget is
seen by many as it's greatest weekness (in comparison to tk, anyway). In
wxPython, you would have to do the hit test yourself as well. There is a
C++ wxCanvas that would do it, but it is not yet complete, and has not
yet been wrapped for Python.

TK is probably the easiest way to do it.
