You can always ask :-)
But this is a pretty specific question and I'd expect a better response
from the tkinter mailing list. It is pretty active and very helpful.

The gmane link is

gmane.comp.python.tkinter

on

news://news.gmane.org:119/gmane.comp.python.tkinter

Although my Grayson book on Tkinter covers PMW I've never used
it so can't help directly.
