In the versions of IDLE that I have here (2.7.3 and 3.2.3), both
prevent me from repeating step #3 multiple times.

Right where I left it?  Are you running with a broken window manager
that prevents you from seeing the dialog?  Sure, because I activated
the main IDLE window, it covers the dialog, but I can just select the
Open dialog in my task-bar and it pops to the top (alternatively, I
could have it display at a higher layer to prevent it from getting
covered by the main IDLE window). This is the behavior I want and
expect (I often want to refer to text in one window to inform my
decisions in a modal window).

I've got it running under Fluxbox on Debian Stable and it does exactly
what I want/expect.
