What kind of surprises? (hmm - if you knew what they were, then they
wouldn't be surprises)

This sounds too good to be true. Do you mean we can use *any* tcl widget but
still use *only* perl? Will the polishing of this module mark the beginning
of the end for perl/Tk? While tcl widgets are many and some quite unique -
I'm sure that there are composite widgets being coded all the time. Will
Tcl::Tk will also allow us to create composite widgets using perl?
