[New-bugs-announce] [issue29910] Ctrl-D eats a character on IDLE

[Serhiy Storchaka]

New submission from Serhiy Storchaka:

Ctrl-D is binded to commenting out a block in IDLE. But additionally it deletes the first character of the line after the block. The default binding of Ctrl-D in Text widget is deleting a character under cursor. IDLE first comment out selected block, and after that runs the default handler.

Proposed patch fixes this issue and presumably other potential conflicts with default bindings. It just adds `return "break"` at the end of most event handlers.
