Master issue for future IDLE entries in Doc/whatsnew/3.6.rst. This doc has a section 'Improved Modules' with a subsection 'idlelib and IDLE' with subsubsections 'New in 3.6.z:'. This issue starts with 3.6.6.
It will close after the last 3.6 maintenance release.

This file also exists in the master (3.8) and 3.7 branches. Changes are applied to master and backported to 3.7 and 3.6. Normally, entries are the same as in What's New 3.8 and 3.7, but those files do not exist in 3.6. Hence each file needs different backport. Hence separate PRs are needed for auto backport to work.
