Terry J. Reedy added the comment: The use of .__new__ was cute. Unfortunately, it did not backport to 2.7 because tkinter classes were never upgraded from old to new in 2.7 and old-style classes do not have .__new__. So I monkeypatched the module instead, which is a but clumbsier than patching the instance. Though not every detail is tested, coverage is essentialy 100% and the human text covers the visual details.
