The SyntaxError is not relevant.  Interactive CPython:

>>> d=[]
>>> d=()
>>> d={}
>>>

Erroneous extra lines in IDLE 3.6+ Shell but not editor:

>>> d = []
	 
>>> d=()
	 
>>> d={}
	 
>>> d=[i for i in [1]]
	 
>>> 

The 'blank' lines are indents produced by IDLE's smart indent mechanism, which is trigger by keying '\n', *before* the code is tentatively compiled.

While the extra lines are an error for the examples above, they are arguably correct for your example, where there is no closing '}'.  The indenter treats it the same as if there were a closing quote, as in the following, which *is* the same in shell and editor, and correct.

d = {1: 'one}'
     # Indent lines up next dict item with the one above.

Even though your example is no a bug, it lead me to discover a regression in current 3.6+.  In the past year, there have been a couple of patches that touched the autoindent code.
