[issue3068] IDLE - Add an extension configuration dialog

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

I expect I will look at this eventually. However, my priorities are bugs, tests, and enhancements that benefit me. From the description, this moves one configuration option that I do not use to a new dialog. So I do not see any immediate improvement for me. Is the idea to have a framework in place for new extensions that have configuration options?

I am not really clear on why some features, like reformat, are considered 'extensions' rather than just normal features, and why its configuration should be segregated.

The comment "A pure Tkinter scrollable frame that actually works!" suggests that there is somewhere a scrollable frame that does not work. The docs? The tkinter package? In any case, this seems like something that perhaps should go in the tkinter package.
