Sidnei pointed out that I could do:

super(Transaction, cls).new()

which, as it turns out, Does The Right Thing. But I wonder if those are 
the kind of semantics one would want to use (if "one" is "me", the 
answer is "No" because There Is No Superclass(TM), so it seems like a 
misleading hackaround.)
