That would be awesome if it could be done.

At the moment my patch is working for me in 2.7.3 (which is all I need for the 
moment).

I have to say... the deeper implications of one approach or another on IDLE as 
a whole are pretty much lost on me. ;-(

It would be nice if this behavior could be incorporated into IDLE at some 
point, since I can't be sure my students will always be using (or have access 
to) my patched version.

thanks,
