FWIW using the approach I outlined earlier, I was able to remove all use of tk from my plugins that used it previously:

FolderIn
FolderOut
ePub3-itizer
cfitest
sampleOutput (updated so it works for non-standardized epub layouts)

Access-Aide, BibiReader, EpubJSReader, and ReadiumReader already have moved to PySide6, and none of the following needed or used a gui of any sort so are okay as is:

LOI-Generator
RemoveInLineStyles
Template2
Template3
TOCSaver

Once we decide on a reduced plugin_utils.py or not. I will release them (all restricted to Sigil 2.0.0 or later)

If anyone wants to see them to get ideas just pm me.
