This won’t be implemented in Vue.js core because I don’t want to endorse deep class inheritance.
You can use this.constructor.super.options.methods.method.call(this) - this is obviously super verbose, but you can easily write a helper to shorten it to something like callSuper(this, 'methodName').

@yyx990803 It’s not about deep class inheritance, it’s about using “extends” property according to how it’s done everywhere and how it is described in the docs. Are you planning to remove “extends” in future releases of vue?
