basically super.init() method should be used whenever u are overriding the init method....else i dont think there is any necessity.....

if u invoke the init()then u dont worry about the super.init(config) in servlet butif u override the init(ServletConfig sc) then u have to call the super.init(config) in servletbecause the Parent Class init() cotains some CODE to execute .that must be executed ,So we should call the super.init(config) in servletif u want to see the code U can becoz it is OpenSource.

when i m providing init method in our servlet something like that public void init() throws Exception()
{
//do something
}
then webcontainer search for the init method to call n it find this in our servlet and  didnt provide all the things regarding to settingup of servlet in this case servlet is going to fail thats why v should provide the super.init() that is call the http servlet init method.
