[issue1498363] Improve super() objects support for implicit method calls

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger <rhettinger at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

Am rejecting this feature request because of the concerns mentioned in the post on 4/3.  The current requirement for explicit forwarding may be slightly inconvenient to type but it does add provide clarity that the method should be applied to the next-in-mro instead of the super object itself.

I appreciate the idea but think it would complicate an object that is already very difficult to understand and use correctly.
