That sounds a bit bogus to me.  I've never used PyCharm before and don't 
know how it works, but I suspect it could be made to work with Cygwin's 
Python.  It's pretty low-priority for me though.  I don't see how using 
PyCharm to edit sage source code would be useful--it won't even do syntax 
highlighting properly, unless I'm missing something.
