It is not IDLE specific. But I still fail to see how this actually is a
security bug. It doesn't give more power to the user than the user already
gave to it. If you are recklessly installing untrusted libraries or
anything for the matter, then you already have a lot of other problems.

Anyways, I would still go with my earlier option because I never used this
piece of code.
