I had also tried to have a little input to the IDLE development process.
Suggesting on the idle-dev list it seemed to me that a trivial patch to the
existing code would provide functionality to allow customization via user-
defined domain-specific syntax highlighting files in a user's home
directory.  So that if one wished one could add appropriate syntax
highlighting for say, Numeric.

I left open the possibility that I was mistaken in my opinion that it was
trivial or necessary or desirable.

I was unable to assess whether the lack of my ability to get a yes, no or
sideways was a result of the fact my suggestion and analysis was absurd, or
something else.  One of the "something else" possibilities was a broken
process.

Still can't assess it.
