How about wrapping the appropriate tkinter code with (untested yet)

import os
HOME = os.environ['HOME']
try:
    <run tkinter>
finally"
    os.environ['HOME'] = HOME  # will this unset?

or use a restore_env('HOME', ...) context manager?

Revising os.expanduser or apps to ignore HOME while tk is running is a related but different issue.
