Feature or enhancement

Proposal:

Add the argument **kw to the method after so that the keyword argument can passed to func Conveniently.

The current function definition of the after is as follows:

def after(self, ms, func=None, *args): ...

If we have the argument **kw, we can do this:

import tkinter

root = tkinter.Tk()
root.after(1000, root.configure, bg="red")
root.mainloop()

Otherwise, we may need something like this:

import tkinter

root = tkinter.Tk()
root.after(1000, lambda: root.configure(bg="red"))
root.mainloop()

Obviously, the lambda here looks a bit redundant.

Has this already been discussed elsewhere?

This is a minor feature, which does not need previous discussion elsewhere
