Wow, Tk never ceases to amaze me...

Does this also happen with the Tcl/Tk version that is included in the 
"official" macOS app bundle?

Could we do a runtime check for specific Tcl/Tk versions that are known 
to work?

I think the tabbed preferences are just so nice and it would be shame to 
hide them from the user by default...

(At the very least, we should use tabbed preference by default on 
Windows and Linux :-)
