     Ok, then.  So, I've already got a package that does the external  
tagging, and it does a pretty good job of it too.  Should we just push  
that toward tklib and then work on pushing both the tooltip and tags  
stuff into the ::tk namespace for core inclusion?

     I do sort of like the process of vetting an extension through the  
(tk|tcl)libs before core inclusion as it not only works the kinks out  
but gets real-world use and some feedback.

     My current package adds a tag and a configure command to the root  
namespace, but they can just easily go into ::tk or whatever.

::tk::tag add foo .e1 .e2

::tk::tag configure foo -state disabled

etc...
