Like the title says pasting 🌹 (or U+1F339) into IDLE makes IDLE instantaneously crash.

Can you please add your operating system and environment information? It seems similar to issue37286 and issue13153 in Windows.

As said multiple times on #13153, IDLE exits with a traceback that is visible when it is started from a command line (python -m idlelib).  It usually ends with
  File "F:\dev\3x\lib\tkinter\__init__.py", line 1420, in mainloop
    self.tk.mainloop(n)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xed in position 3: invalid continuation byte

The crash issue is fixed, but editing does not work correctly.
