I don't think so. This community mainly attracts developers, not UX 
specialists or designers.

I'm curious about the purpose of "re-envisioning" IDLE. It has always 
been adequate for my needs--a simple IDE. The Python shell is useful for 
working out snippets of code, and the text editor is workable enough for 
me. While bugs do crop up from time to time, they are usually 
fixed--fixed faster if one is able to contribute a patch, as I do when 
I'm able.

But I don't consider IDLE in any way "broken": what leads you to such a 
conclusion?
