So the "current working directory" is the directory containing the file, right? That would explain the behavior.
Probably "Edit with IDLE" should be changed. I have no idea where that is defined. In 3.11 we should be able to make that use the new -P option, which doesn't insert the working directory at the front of sys.path.
