His comments on the subject are in the LiveJournal comment I linked to in my original post. I think it's mostly an idiosyncratic thing; he's used to laying out GUI elements in a hierarchy using tabs (in some language that allows arbitrary tabs) and now that he's experimenting with the (new?) Python API for the same toolkit, he wishes he could use the same coding style. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
