This is a new feature in Python that, as you say, avoids having to
explicitly name the super class.  It would be even nicer if you could
just say "super(self).__init__(path)", but you can't, and there are some
technical reasons for that.

It also makes the call look more like an ordinary method call; it's more
like self.foo(x), rather than Class.foo(self, x).

Yours,
