Summary: replace apply() with f(*args, **kwds)

Initial Comment:
The warnings module causes apply() to run nearly two 
orders of magnitude more slowly than f(*arg, **kwds).  

With this patch IDLE appears to load and execute faster 
(I say appears but I don't see an easy way of timing it).

Thanks for the detailed review.
Here is the revised patch (only 1 line changed).

The first part of the patch to configDialog.py is wrong:
plane is a variable with the possible values "foreground"
and "background". The patch changes this to "plane".
Otherwise the patch looks OK.
