I may be wrong, but AFAIK, the options you pass to the configure methods or used 
when creating an object are just passed almost "as is" to the tcl layer by 
Tkinter. So, except in very special cases, there can't be an option available in 
tk that isn't in Tkinter... I surely never saw such an option.

So I just wonder what made you think the option wasn't available?
