Ah, the patch makes it clear.  Tkinter is already generating a name to submit to tk, and you are proposing to replace using the Python id for that purpose.  +1.

I also notice that duplicate names cause the old tk widget to be destroyed even if the Python instance is not.  Knowing that, I agree with the leading underscore to minimize interference. The consequence of collision and the new default should both be documented somehow.
