Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked classbrowser-improvments.patch, classbrowser-improvements-v2.patch, and patch.txt, then inspect IDLE's ModuleBrowser implementation. The change is complete when the ModuleBrowser displays function argument lists; the issue provides no named tests, so identify the relevant IDLE test coverage before modifying it.
