Emanuel Barry added the comment:

+1. I prefer that change, as using subclasses of `type` as if they were type 
itself never made sense to me. This shouldn't break existing code, but if it 
does, it was either a concealed bug or a very bad idea to begin with, and 
should be fixed either way.

Attached patch implements Eryk's suggestion. I haven't found any tests that 
checked for subclasses of type specifically (except tests testing for metaclass 
stuff), and I haven't added any either.
