Not. Many though will wait until 3.2 and greater library availability, which *is* coming.

In what ways do you consider it broken?

Issue 8093.

IDLE is not Python. And are you really sure this is 3.x-only problem or that it is not a Windows-only problem.

Remarkably, this apparently hasn't been noticed before.

Because it requires somewhat rare circumstances. Start an infinite loop from IDLE, perhaps specifically on Windows. Try to restart. Patiently wait for restart to happen (several seconds, and iffy) instead of killing the runaway process from TaskManager.

I expect 2.7 will be around for a long time.

That was always expected independently of this issue.
