classmethod/staticmethod aren't decorators in the 'decorators' sense.
They return a new function object. Decorators are something like:
class myclass:
    @classmethod
    def test(cls, x, y):
        pass

I don't claim to understand them very well, but the idea is to put them
*before* you declare the function, so that the information is all near
eachother.

And I'm sure 'super' doesn't work with old-style classes.
