What I do is use the notion of "actions" (http://wiki.tcl.tk/11505).
The action library I use lets me group things together with tags, so I
can do something like "action disable edit" an all widgets associated
with the "edit" tag become disabled.

It requires very small amount of work to set up but the benefits are
worth it.
