OK; the light is beginning to dawn.  I think my major problem right now is
just understanding how the Tk/Tkinter mapping works.  At any rate, the
following does exactly what I want:

def _nextWin(self, event):
        """So other keys can act like <Tab>.
        """
        event.widget.tk_focusNext().focus_set()

Thanks again - it DOES help.
