Let's add some more food for thought in that treeview is the largest =
single
widget by code size in tile - 2x larger than notebook and 3x larger than
button.  This all pales in comparison to the size of treectrl, and I =
know that
any tree will have some significant size.

The point is that it needs to have some compelling case to go in.  Does
tablelist_tile's use of its theme elements justify it in itself?  Are =
there
clear small use cases where the existing widget provides satisfactory
functionality?  People will ask "why was this added?" - what will the =
answer
be?  All the other parts of tile excite me - it's a great body of work, =
but
this one widget (and to some extent ttk::dialog) give me pause.
