I'd rather see syntactic support for making a normal inherited method call without danger of using the wrong class, e.g. if you change a base class but forget to update inherited calls to match.
Could you give an example? My first three readings of this were
(1) Huh? (2) You mean, if the bases are changed, super doesn't get updated? (It does, as I just verified.) (3) You mean, with an explicit call, such as B.meth1(self), you want some sort of warning if class B changes the signature of meth1? (Presumably at compile-time; an incompatible change will already be caught at run-time.)
