Bryan Oakley added the comment:
What behavior do I expect? I expect it to not throw an error. I expect whatever
string I give to be inserted into the widget unadulterated (ie: if I give the
string "foo {" I expect to see "foo {" in the widget).
Tkinter is effectively telling me "you have a Tcl syntax error". Since I'm
programming in python I should be insulated from that, particularly since the
error comes internally after Tkinter transforms my data.
How Tkinter does it under the hood, I don't care. Tkinter should make sure that
the data it passes to the Tcl interpreter is well-formed.
