Grr, sounds like a pain if I want to use the new widgets. Does this cause 
conflict with someone who isn't running 8.5, or will they still see the older 
widgets as normal?

I'm tempted just to go back to wxPython. Two sets of widgets in Tkinter is a 
little annoying.

The new widgets are not a drop-in replacement for the traditional Tk widgets. They can be used with 8.4 if the "tile" Tk extension is installed. This is how the ttk widgets were first deployed; they didn't enter Tk's core until 8.5.
