Is it common practice to use "super" in python?  I know of at least  
one essay:

   http://fuhm.net/super-harmful/

which says no, "Python's Super Considered Harmful".  Don't use it.  I  
don't know what the standard practices in the Python community  
actually are in regards to that particular facility.

If it's controversial, I'm not sure that automatically including it  
in the standard snippet, and then having most people delete it when  
it appears, would be a good thing.
