[issue27115] IDLE: replace used of tkinter simpledialog with query.Query

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

We should not change simpledialog.py, but we could change bindings after import.

However, since last summer, we can instead replace simpledialog.py with subclasses of ttk-using query.Query, with custom validators. editor.py uses askinterger for indent width, columns/tab, and goto line number. Iomenu uses askstring for encoding.  I have already planned to use Query for the line# box.
