No, but you can use the following instead of dir(...) in the for loop of
__init__():

(copied from cmd.py in the libarary)

def get_names(self):
    # Inheritance says we have to look in class and
    # base classes; order is not important.
    names = []
    classes = [self.__class__]
    while classes:
        aclass = classes.pop(0)
        if aclass.__bases__:
            classes = classes + list(aclass.__bases__)
        names = names + dir(aclass)
    return names
