I realized that 'text' isn't a normally valid arguments for Entry (and I'm also aware about the insert, get, etc), but what makes me creep is the fact that the Entry's value would mirror each other if they're set to the same 'text' value (Actually, I'm interested on how they implement the Tkinter's/Tcl/Tk Entry box that this kind of behavior could ever possibly exist [I started Pythoning just two weeks ago, so my knowledge on its internals is quite limited]). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
