Tkinter -- Simple to use, but limited

With the themed widget introduced in Tk 8.5, Tkinter is now a peer to
the other GUI toolkits in most respects, surpasses them in some (canvas
widget), and lags behind in just two areas: printing (several
platform-specific solutions but no cross-platform API) and HTML display
(a few extensions but no standard widget set).

I would add the ancient and limited image support, both for input and canvas output. Modern SVG output instead of ancient (possibly buggy) PostScript would be a real improvement.

Otherwise, I have become more impressed with the text widget as I have studied the Idle code. Even that does not use everything. I have not looked at the text widget in other guis to compare.
