IIRC, there is a way to get tkInter to render a string in a particular
font so that you can then find out how wide the result is in pixels.
It's been a long time since I needed to do that, and it was a bit of a
hassle.  I'm not sure how you would make sure it's rendered in the
same font as the window title.
