Roger Serwy added the comment:

I can confirm that the existing behavior of IDLE prohibits clicking on the 
scroll bar on Windows (but not Linux). Clicking on an item in the window closes 
it without actually selecting the clicked item. This is true on both Windows 
and Linux.

On Windows, the <FocusOut> event is generated when selecting the completion 
window, causing it to close. On Linux with Gnome3.4, the scroll bar is 
clickable without closing the window.

By removing "<FocusOut>" from HIDE_SEQUENCES in AutoCompleteWindow.py, the 
completion window can now take focus. However, the completion window will need 
some work since key presses in the focused window doesn't change the text 
selection.
