The double negative here makes this impossible to understand. Could we
please get an updated NEWS entry that explains what actually changed
in IDLE to fix this?

Perhaps something like "IDLE now always sets the default keybind for
Return correctly, ensuring commands can be executed in the IDLE shell
window"? (assuming that's what happened).

This is important, folks: NEWS entries need to be comprehensible for
people that *haven't* read the associated tracker issue. This means
that issue titles (which generally describe a problem someone was
having) are often inappropriate as NEWS items. NEWS items should be
short descriptions that clearly describe *what changed*, perhaps with
some additional information to explain a bit about why the change was
made.

Regards,
Nick.
