If we didn't have a GUI in the distribution, we wouldn't choose
Tkinter now; it seems like its inclusion
is a sort of historical accident.
I'm not so sure about that. If we didn't have a GUI, what would we
include?
Is the Tkinter GUI also the basic way that Python handles a graphics
display? (I've never tried it.)
If it is, then perhaps it's possible to split the purely graphical drawing
stuff (which is simple) from the dialog/widget stuff (which is not so
simple).
A library for graphical display, plus basic user-input, should be
straightforward to implement. And can be used to produce crude (non-native)
GUIs.
