I like the idea of the name change, and that it encompasses ‘learning'. As far as tag lines go, I’d be more inclined towards something like “IDLE is Python’s Integrated Development and Learning Environment” (i.e. the tkinter stuff isn’t hugely important to the user audience, and the possessive “Python’s” captures the “for Python” as well as it’s built-in as part of Python.
OK. The tkinter/tk part is not needed here in the user doc. It is only really needed later to explain why IDLE windows, and in particular the Shell, act a bit differently from a console/terminal window.

(See below for history.) The specific change would be to make the first line of idle.rst and derivatives read (something like) "IDLE is an Integrated Development and Learning Environment for Python, writen in Python with the tkinter GUI package."
