Perhaps you are listening selectively. I have said more than once on this list that I use IDLE, I like using it, it works for me, AND I would like it improved. When a student proposed that as part of a Google Summer of Code project, I (and others) encouraged him to go ahead, which he did. Any concrete effort you make to improve IDLE would be appreciated by me. There are issues on the tracker already.
