There are several very sophisticated Python IDE's. At least one
is open source:
http://www.die-offenbachs.de/eric/index.html
I used to use it a lot, long ago.
Eric4 (the above linked one) is written in Python against the Qt
library. I suspect one could build SAGE's Python with Qt bindings,
then build Eric4 into it, and suddenly have Eric4 as a very sophisticated
IDE for SAGE, i.e., by starting it as follows
sage: !eric # or eric4 or whatever the command line option is.
