Sorry, I should have noticed earlier that this is a duplicate of Issue12342.  The problem is simply that Tcl/Tk does not currently support the display of Unicode code points outside of the BMP.  The question then is what IDLE to do when asked to display such characters.  The current behavior of letting tkinter detect the unsupported code point and bubbling up a somewhat unhelpful exception message is not the most user-friendly response.  Let's continue any discussion of this over on the earlier issue.
