I suppose the 'advantage' of this is that it will replace tk widgets 
with equivalent ttk widgets, if they exist and have the same name. I 
believe one has to program them differently, however, so the replacement 
cannot be transparent and one mush know anyway what gets replaced and 
what not.

No. One name for one object.
