This is a dependency bug of the Kubuntu packaging system. It is most probably unrelated to Matplotlib upstream developement. You should report it to the Kubuntu bugzilla (after having looked if it has already been filed). By the way, the LOTS of ausiliary packages are most probably as needed as python-tk to make it work. Don't really understand what you mean by those kind of comparisons, but all complex packages have dependencies. It just seems Kubuntu missed one.
