Ah; thanks for checking. I should have tested under Tk 8.6, but was following the stock recommendation at python.org to use ActiveState's 8.5 (as most of the target audience will), and python.org's installers (which don't support Tk 8.6, but may soon?).
Will upgrade and have a look. Hopefully, 8.6 will clear up a few other AS 8.5 oddities too - weirdly slow Text scrolls, windows losing focus on popups, and the like - though it largely works well enough to qualify as compelling, and better than the version shipped with the box.
