Éric Araujo added the comment:

Idle needs to find its text help files at runtime, so they are installed as 
data alongside with the code.  The rst doc files however can be installed 
anywhere or not installed at all, so we can’t change Idle to look for them.

An alternate idea to avoid duplication could be to copy the rst file to the 
code directory at build time.
