Tkinter apps can't be distributed on the macOS App Store

Bug report

Bug description:

If you use tkinter in your app, and package the app for distribution in the macOS App Store, the app will be rejected with a message to the effect that:

Guideline 2.5.1 - Performance - Software Requirements

Your app uses or references the following non-public or deprecated APIs:

Contents/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.12/lib/libtk8.6.dylib

Symbols:

• _NSWindowDidOrderOnScreenNotification

The use of non-public or deprecated APIs is not permitted on the App Store, as they can lead to a poor user experience should these APIs change and are otherwise not supported on Apple platforms.

(or similar).

This appears to be a known issue in Tk.

This ticket is mostly to log the issue as something that can affect macOS users; there's not much we can do to fix it until such time as Tk fixes the problem and releases the fix in a version that Python can incorporate into a release (or, I guess, Apple changes their App Store review policies).

CPython versions tested on:

3.14, 3.13, 3.12, 3.11, 3.10, 3.9, CPython main branch

Operating systems tested on:

macOS

The report names no CPython file or test; start by reading the linked Tk issue and comparing the macOS App Store rejection across the listed Python versions. Done would require a Tk fix released and incorporated into CPython, or a change in Apple's review policy; the issue says no CPython fix is currently available.
