the first arg to super() must be a type, not a class obj?

The whole point of super is that it returns the first superclass in the 
MRO that *follows* the class of the (first) argument. It's this 
behaviour that makes super() useful in multiple inheritance situations 
(if you believe that super() is in fact useful - there are those who 
have their doubts).
