Are you sure about that? Going by the current _pyio semantics that Antoine posted, it looks to me that it is already the case that subclasses need to invoke the parent flush() call correctly to avoid breaking the base class semantics (which really isn't an uncommon problem when it comes to writing correct subclasses).
