[issue18766] IDLE: Autocomplete in editor doesn't work for un-imported modules

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

The concern about adding bugs could be alleviated by checking whether the name is in an import statement.  But it still might not be in the proper form.

I am trying to reduce the run.py import to those actually needed in run.py.  I already reduced sys.modules by 37.  The side effect is that fewer modules will autocomplete before running the code in the editor.  Hence, there is more need for this change.
