I hadn't noticed it before, but I started Idle 3.2 on Windows 7 and
observed it does not move smoothly. Other editors (e.g. I tried GVIM
and Notepad) move smoothly when dragged by their title bar. I'd guess
they're hitting at least 30fps, probably quite a bit better. Idle has
quite jerky movement. I'd guess maybe 10fps. So far as I can tell,
this affects all Idle windows, but *only* while the shell window is
open. If you have open only a document window, it's smooth and snappy
like any other editor.
