OK, so after what - one and a half decades? - Tkinter now finally has
caught up with wxPython and PyQt (concerning the look). Which can be
used in an as interactive way from the commandline interpreter as
Tkinter. Argument against Tkinter withdrawn from my side.

But there's afaik still no interactive GUI builder out there for any of
these frameworks, nor a higher level framework that requires less glue
code between bare naked "event handling" and the domain-specific code.
"Event handling" - that term already raises my hair because it stinks
like bulkloads of clumsy, error-prone diligence work that has nothing
to do with the problem I need to get solved.

Sincerely,

Wolfgang
