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.)
