There is an issue of confusion:
class CheeseShop(Sketch, ByCleese, ByGraham): pass
You need to be careful that the user understands
issubclass(SillyWalks, (Sketch, ByCleese, ByGraham))
is not simply testing that SillyWalks has the same ancestors as
CheeseShop, but is True simply because issubclass(SillyWalks, Sketch)
is True. More a document issue than anything, but to be considered.
