tkinter drawing

I want to be able to easily create reusable shapes in Tkinter and be 
able to use them in mid level dialogs.  So after some experimenting I've 
managed to get something to work.

The following does pretty much what I need, but I think it can be 
improved on. So could anyone take a look and let me know what you think?

Some of the things I want to add, but aren't exactly sure how at this time:
    Nested groups
    Use tags to be able to change sub items later
    Have items get attribues from the group if it doesn't have them

Hope this isn't too long.

Cheers, Ron
