Is that just multiple inheritance, or are mixins something else?

Multiple inheritance with your discipline to not do more complicated things. Only inherit from base 'object', nothing else, so you will have no complicated inheritance problems.
Which, in reality, rarely happens. Looking through the code in the Python standard library shows how even the exemplar mixin examples are rarely so pure.
