Agreed. And I didn't see any equivalent of the Tkinter Canvas widget in any 
other toolset. In fact, I didn't even see any widget coming close to it. For 
some kind of applications (namely application doing vector drawing), it is 
nearly impossible to consider anything else than Tkinter *because* of the Canvas 
widget...

However, I'll be glad if someone can prove me wrong...
