There was a tracker proposal to include one particular checker in Idle. 
  I rejected that for multiple reasons and suggested instead a framework 
for letting a user run *any* checker on editor contents.  This expanded 
proposal was part of last summer's GSOC project but needs a bit more work.

The inclusion of pip makes downloading 3rd party modules easier than it 
used to be.
