To restore the previous behavior set :mod:`!tkinter` module global

Calling it with argument ``2`` restores the current default behavior.

:data:`~tkinter.wantobject` to ``1`` before creating the

Setting the :mod:`!tkinter` module global :data:`~tkinter.wantobject` to ``2``
before creating the :class:`~tkinter.Tk` object or call the
:meth:`~tkinter.Tk.wantobject` method of the :class:`!Tk` object with argument
``2`` makes now arguments to callbacks registered in the :mod:`tkinter` module
to be passed as various Python objects (``int``, ``float``, ``bytes``, ``tuple``),
depending on their internal represenation in Tcl, instead of always ``str``.
:data:`!tkinter.wantobject` is now set to ``2`` by default.
