Thanks for the reminder here. I remember this being an issue back in the 
day, and the compromise (just map to the Tk scrollbar) was effective 
because visually it was already native.

After doing a bit more digging into HITheme, it's likely that I will 
borrow a lot of the ttk C-level code in reivsing the implementation of 
the Mac buttons, menubuttons and scrollbars. Visually HITheme is almost 
identical to the Cocoa widgets. However, I will be adapting this stuff 
to Tk's API, not ttk's. This means that the revised Tk widgets will 
still be as configurable as before, and will not respond to ttk:: commands.

Thanks,
Kevin
