New description:
When using {{ block.super }}, it behaves like a normal variable which
leads to the following issue:
As soon as the block.super raises (e.g.) a UnicodeDecodeError, {{
block.super }} evaluates to an empty string.
When using {{ block.super }} in cascading base templates, this frequently
leads to blank pages which are hard to debug.
