The `super` keyword doesn't work as it should?

[Andrea Giammarchi]

For implementation sake, this is a quick'n'dirty approach that brings a
dynamically resolved `super` to any object or prototype:
https://gist.github.com/WebReflection/ee4695c107339e039878b02afb90dc0d

Usage example:
```js
function A() {
  console.log(this.constructor.name);
}
A.prototype.method = function () {
  console.log('method from ' + this.constructor.name);
};

function B() {
  this.super();
  console.log(this.constructor.name);
}
B.prototype = Object.create(A.prototype, {constructor: {value: B}});
withSuperContext(B.prototype).method = function () {
  this.super.method();
  console.log('method from ' + this.constructor.name);
};

function C() {
  this.super();
  console.log(this.constructor.name);
}
C.prototype = withSuperContext(
  Object.create(B.prototype, {constructor: {value: C}})
);
C.prototype.method = function () {
  this.super.method();
  console.log('method from ' + this.constructor.name);
};

var c = new C;
// will log
// A
// B
// C

c.method();
// method from A
// method from B
// method from C

```

Best Regards
