Supposing you call "embedding" inserting a widget in the text via the  
window_create method, why should they? Embedding a window in a Text is  
used to put some arbitrary widget in the middle of the text it contains.  
So the embedded widget has no reason to grow or shrink with the parent  
Text widget: it just moves with the text.

As James said, the <Configure> event is your friend. But I'm not sure I  
understand your use case...
