bpo-23544: IDLE hangs when selecting Stack Viewer with debug active
152d306 
"Stack Viewer" is now disabled when user code is running.

An alternative fix would be to use a method like EditorWindow.right_menu_event(), where individual methods are specified via verify_state for submenu items.

I like this approach!

I suggest also moving the check for the existence of sys.last_traceback from open_stack_viewer() to the postcommand, which would allow removing a nice chunk of error handling code there.

Currently, selecting "Debug -> Stack Viewer" also fails if a successful command was last run, or even just an empty statement. If fails after a small delay and just sounds the bell rather than displaying an error box. Ideally, we would recognize that case as well and have the menu option disabled in such cases.

I changed index patterns to not care about trivial changes, such as 'Stack Viewer' to 'Stack viewer' and to fail given inconsistent menu and pattern changes. I manually tested that everything works.

I will merge this when CI passes to fix hangs (user code executing) and crashes (Debugger active). I would test and likely merge a new patch to allow a stack viewer anytime. If either of you decide to do it, open and issue and say so.
