I think that the resolution of this issue should be revision of at least the tkinter paragraph in https://docs.python.org/3/using/mac.html#gui-programming-on-the-mac, and I think at least the tkinter revision should be cherry-picked into the upcoming releases.  Ned, what do you want to do?

PyObjC paragraph: move to end?

Tkinter paragraph: rewrite to something like...

The standard Python GUI toolkit is tkinter, based on the cross-platform Tk toolkit (https://www.tcl.tk). Starting with the 64-bit installer in 3.6.6 and both installers in 3.7.0, an Aqua-native version of Tk is bundled the installer.  Users are urged to install the most recent bug-fix releases.

'Other' paragraphs:  combine into something like ...

*wxPython* and *PyQt* are other cross-platform GUI toolkits that runs natively on Mac OS X. See https://www.wxpython.org or https://riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/intro.

[Does the other Qt wrapping, PySide, run natively on Mac?]
