[issue15786] IDLE code completion window can hang or misbehave with mouse

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

Now that I know how to backport with confidence, and have cleared the backlog, and synched 3.6 with 3.7, I want to review this next.  I would like to get it in 6.2, but 6.2 was due yesterday, but delayed, and there is no info on how long the delay is.  This may be one of the harder patches to review and test, but I will try tomorrow. (Its midnight here now.)

My main concern is that we not break one thing while fixing another, which I have done before, due to inadequate tests.  I will try to develop a test protocol from doc subsection 2.2 Completions to list what works without the patch.
