Nick Coghlan added the comment:
Scratch that, my revised idea is fundamentally broken, as this example
illustrates:
>>> class BaseClass: pass
...
>>> class OtherClass: pass
...
>>> class SubClass(OtherClass, BaseClass): pass
...
>>> SubClass.mro()
[<class '__main__.SubClass'>, <class '__main__.OtherClass'>, <class
'__main__.BaseClass'>, <class 'object'>]
The PEP as written handles this correctly, while the alternative signature
would fail miserably ("OtherClass" wouldn't chain up to "BaseClass" properly).
So I'll review the rest of the patch, and we can figure out the documentation
problem later.
