Here on Linux it opens at the directory from where idle was executed,
so I can't exactly reproduce the problem. But..

you could open a bug report on bugs.python.org and request for this feature.
Do you think using the directory of the last opened file opened would
be good enough ? It already maintains the recent opened files so the
first entry could be used for this new feature.
