bizarre pattern then it sucks and we should just use tkinter instead.

I think you are one of a kind and that any suggestions you make about
what should or shouldn't be standard in Python (i.e what would be of the
most use to the largest number of people) are to be taken with an
extremely large grain of salt.  Nothing wrong with being unique, but you
just need to realize that no one else in their right mind wants to do
things your way and any attempts you make to get them to do so are
doomed to failure at best and ridicule at worst.

Cliff
