I don't have a good one in mind - though

I don't think that would work - but reasoning about MRO hurts my brain ;-)

You'd have to declare the class like this:

class FileIO(io.FileIO, IOBase):
   pass

to get the io.File methods to resolve first. But that means that the 
method invocation chain would be broken by io.IOBase, which doesn't make 
super calls.

Cheers,
Brian
