Note that installing a new extension (e.g. from PyPI) is a hassle, so new extensions die quickly if they aren't integrated into IDLE. I think extensions would be much more useful given a config dialog for configuring each extension separately. My patch for this has been sitting around for years: issue3068 <http://bugs.python.org/issue3068>. Admittedly I was given the go-ahead to make such changes to IDLE directly and commit them, but unfortunately I haven't found the time required for this since. - Tal
