I can't speak for Tkinter, but wxPython has lots of widgets to choose
from and a number of developers that create custom widgets. They have
a page on their wiki devoted to custom widgets here:

http://wiki.wxpython.org/CreatingCustomControls

And here's another article:

I find their mailing list to have extremely knowledgeable users that
are happy to help newbs too. Hopefully someone with Tkinter experience
can tell you about it robustness or lack thereof.
