If the frame is placed and the label is packed inside it with "-expand 1"
and "-fill both" then you can do this precisely in vtcl. This does not
work if the frame is packed due the current lack of support for
"pack propogate".

yes, this works with the placer (since there's no such thing as
propogation for place).
