The call from AppForm to DefaultForm is needed, but the Form __init__ is 
effectively a no-op (construction is done in __new__). So the call from 
DefualtForm to Form is unnecessary.

In your case the args and keywargs are actually applied in __new__ - 
which you haven't overridden...

OTOH - I can see that there may be cases where this is a genuine problem.
