Darn. I always try to use keyward args, but that could be a problem. It 
seems that this would be a good thing for Python to have a standard way 
of dealing with. Or Maybe wxPython, as there arguments to wx.Window 
calls tend to be similar.

Another option, as style flags are really the key thing here, is to have 
a way to add a style flag in the constructor, before the Window gets 
created.
