[issue30422] Add roadmap.txt section to idlelib

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

The existing todo.txt is a decade out of date or so.  A low priority item is to review it against open issues + my own todo list.  What I remember from when I read it is that some seemed either very low priority or something I don't really want to do.  There are also XXX and TODO comments in some modules.

Single window app.  Look at your browser.  Open at least 10 pages in separate tabs.  This might be IDLE in the future.   Then imagine that each page was instead in a separate window.  This is IDLE today. Find is also in a separate window.  On older Windows, most separate windows is a separate icon on the task bar, though in Win 10, multiple windows are stacked under one icon. Or try the same experiment with a tabbed editor such as Notepad++.  [Note that one can, for instance, have multiple windows, but each window usually has multiple tabs.]
