ok, I got it now :)
As Brian pointed out, there is no literal parameter name here in Python,
however (to make things a bit more confusing :) technically speaking you
can use "cnf" as keyword-parameter here (although "cnf" is usually
supposed to be a {"option":"value"} dict), so e.g.:

  >>> widget.configure('bd')
  ('borderwidth', 'borderWidth', 'BorderWidth', , 0)

is equal to

  >>> widget.configure(cnf='bd')
  ('borderwidth', 'borderWidth', 'BorderWidth', , 0)

The tk documentation calls this "option". In python it doesn't have a
literal name. If you need to refer to it in documentation you could use
"argument" or "the only argument" or  "the first positional argument". For
example: "if you call the configure method with a single argument (eg:
label_widget.configure("text")), it will return ..."

For the last time, what is the parameter's name that accepts option's name as a 
string:

instance.configure(?!?!="option")

I hope I was clear this time.

Not sure what you mean by that; I would tend to say the parameter's name
is "width" ;)

At
https://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.4/TkCmd/panedwindow.htm#M33
this is explained in more detail.
