I would suggest embedding these widgets, and others, instead of trying
to replace the default behaviour of a cell entry in tktable.
Embedding is easy enough given your tktable python wrapper has the
window commands wrapped:
import Tkinter
import tktable
table = tktable.Table()
table.window_configure("2,3", window=Tkinter.Entry())
table.pack()
table.mainloop()
I'm using Tkinter.Entry here, but you could just as well use this
AutoCompleteEntry widget. This "2,3" is the cell index -- third row,
fourth column.
The wrapper I used there can be found at XXX (forgot the link, it is
on http://tkinter.unpythonic.net/wiki but the wiki is inaccessible
now) and also in tktable's cvs since about 1-2 month(s) ago (except
that the one in cvs doesn't yet have the latest updates).

It is a matter of reorganizing the ArrayVar associated to the table
since tktable doesn't have a built-in sort yet. Have you tried doing
anything like this ?
