Hi all,

I recently stumbled upon an issue with a class in the mro chain not
calling super, therefore breaking the chain (ie, further base classes
along the chain didn't get called).
I understand it is currently a requirement that all classes that are
part of the mro chain behave and always call super. My question is,
shouldn't/wouldn't it be better,
if python took ownership of that part, and ensured all classes get
called, even if some class misbehaved?

For example, if using a stack-like structure, pushing super calls and
popping until the stack was empty, couldn't this restriction be
removed?

Thanks,
Ricardo
