The document "Unifying types and classes in Python 2.2" by Guido
probably answers your question.

Quote from http://www.python.org/2.2.3/descrintro.html#cooperation
regarding super:

"It would be nice if we didn't have to name the class explicitly, but
this would require more help from Python's parser than we can
currently get. I hope to fix this in a future Python release by making
the parser recognize super."
