Pyzo may be able to... I was referring to IEP, specifically:

While being able to switch between releases of python would be nice, and 
it appears that iep supports some of the 'magic' features in ipython... 
there appears to be a certain inflexibility about window positioning 
(like what if I want the shell in a sub-window in the lower right 
corner, not stretched across the whole top of the window - I figured out 
how to move some of the windows/frames, but putting the editor on top 
and the shell somewhere else is kickin' my butt), and it doesn't support 
any kind of integrated error checking (pep8/pyflakes/pylint) which for 
me personally, is more important than being able to flip between 
different versions of python on the fly.  I'm *really* wanting spyder to 
hurry the heck up and support Python3 already... but it does an 
outstanding job with 2.7.x, so thats where I'm parked for now.
