It's a while since I used tkinter, but if I recall correctly,
the grid manager does allow proportional resizing. And you
really don't need pack, you can use grid to do anything that
pack can do.

Having said that, experience has made me very skeptical
about the usefulness of proportional resizing. Most often,
there is one "main" content area in a window that
I want to give the user control over the size of, and the
other stuff around it can just as well be fixed size.

When that's not true, proportional sizing doesn't really
cut it -- you really need some kind of splitter control to
let the user adjust the allocation of space according to
the needs of the moment.
