I think it would be great to have an minimun API for writing plug-ins for Python IDLE. I don't know if there are people interested in this, but I do. What do you think? Python could benefit in some way with this?

This already exists! In IDLE they're called Extensions. See extend.txt (link below) in the IDLE source code for details on how to write them. IDLE also ships with several built-in plugins which provide some key functionality, such as auto-completion and parenthesis matching. You can check those out for examples. http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/v3.4.0/Lib/idlelib/extend.txt - Tal
