Sounds good to me.

Actually, the standard Python on Windows does know about the 
registry. And Mark Hammond's Win32 extension stuff has a registry 
module. 

But what if the user is (for some other purposes) relying on having a 
different version of tcl/tk around? Not all that uncommon, and very 
messy. Python is not real flexible about the version of tcl / tk it 
uses.
