I think so, yes. The conditions in which it needs to be used will have
to change, though: Python 3 defaults to UTF-8 as the source encoding,
so there is no need to use a computed encoding when there is no declared
one, anymore.
What encoding IDLE should use for sys.stdout is as debatable as it
always was (i.e. should it use a fixed on, independent of installation,
or a variable one, depending on the user's locale)

This is still mostly correct, except that it should encode as UTF-8
in the absence of any declared encoding (see above).
I'll fix that when I find some time.
