The bug with the edit menu sounds like the same issues I noted in http://bugs.python.org/issue6463. I think it was related to something in Tk-Cocoa 8.5, which was resolved in a later build of Tk, and which is why I closed the bug. The build of Tk-Cocoa that ships with Snow Leopard may have preceded the bug fix (there has been a lot of activity on the Tk- Cocoa front in recent weeks). If that's the case, I doubt a fix will be available unless Apple updates its core Tk libraries. The best workaround might be to install an updated build from the source http://github.com/das/tcltk/tree/de-carbon-8-5 into /Library/Frameworks.
