Most of the dialogs in IDLE on OS X do respond to 'Return' key as equivalent to hitting OK, and Escape to hitting Cancel.

Guidelines also suggest that the Enter key (on numeric keypad) should work like 'Return', and Cmd-. (period) should work like Cancel. Doesn't happen now in any of the places I looked.

note that many of these are using 'simpledialog' which has that limitation

Then either simpledialog should changed, or Idle should subclass or rewrite it to work as it should.

query.Query has and will mostly replace tkinter.simpledialog bpo-27115.
This is partially a duplicate with respect to Query bpo-27621.
