It's not just about "cool new things", it's a survival strategy for
years to come. Tk has been falling to the wayside for a while now;
and it's starting to be like Motif - it launches, but looks
prehistoric (just do file -> open on linux to see what I mean - I
admit it's better on windows) and people don't want to write new code
for it anymore (i.e. if edward gets hit by bus, leo would be pretty
much screwed if it was tk-only).
