Martin, can we just fix the signature here.  It is not the purpose of the super docs explain the MRO (that is a feature of all new-style classes, super() is just something that hops to the next in the chain) or to be a tutorial.  I would like to keep the rest of the docs mostly as-is.  These docs have already been refined multiple times and proven themselves usable for a lot of user).   The only part that wasn't previously edited was the parameter names for the signature.
