Yes, thanks for your feedback. I changed the text a little bit:

Limitations:
It's not possible to access an attribute through the _super function
e.g. this._super().attribute, instead you must use this.attribute.
This limitation only applies to attributes.

Later I will add a list of all features and leave this "Limitations"
section below it.

Thanks,
Eduardo S. Nunes
