I don't think so. The classes look much cleaner without it.
+1 from for removing (object) from most examples (except for the descriptor howto).

Thanks Terry. Yes, I would like to keep (object) in the text of the descriptor how-to. As you said, it keeps the text compatible. But also, the explicit inheritance from (object) is an aid to clarity in a document that needs to highlight that attribute access occurs in two forms, object.__getattribute__ and type.__getattribute__.
