[Zope] Getting at base ZClass methods

I have an instance of ZClass Y, which has a base ZClass X. Now, X
defines some DTML Method foo_html, but Y is a specialized variant for
which I don't want to _replace_ foo_html, but augment it with extra
information. Is there a way to get at a base ZClass' methods in the
context of an instance?
Code that illustrates what I'd like to achieve:
X.foo_html:
<!--#var basic_information_property-->
Y.foo_html:
<!--#var "getinherited('foo_html')"-->
<!--#var specialized_information_property-->
Here, the hypothetical getinherited() would find the method object in an
ancestor class.
Possible?
