pythlp.chm is a 3rd party add-on; it was never distributed as part of
Python for Windows, and probably never will (keeping it up to date
proved too much of a hassle).  But as long as it is available as a 3rd
party add-on, I see no reason why IDLE couldn't look for it and add a
help item for it if it exists.
