[ltk-user] text widget, tk8.5

In general I consider Ltk as supporting all Tk features - so if
something escaped me, it is because I overlooked it and never tried to
use it. So pointing out those points certainly helps in getting them
added :).

Sure, I am also looking forward to all improvements to the Tk engine,
so I definitely plan to stay along with the progress. Ltk *should* run
in 8.5 out of the box (as far as I expect Tk 8.5 to be backwards
compatible), but again, if you encounter errors, please post  them so
I can have a look into fixing them.
