You can use super() also but for simple cases I think it is fine to just call the superclass method directly. super() is intended to help with some of the difficulties of multiple inheritance but it has some difficulties of its own. > I mostly need the sorted list, because I want to detect when a object > is added with the same value of some item in the list and take > appropriate actions. If you don't really care about the order, then a dict mapping the value of interest to a list of items with that value might be easier to work with.
