What exactly do you mean by "Superset"?

If Z++ is truly a superset of C++, then every valid C++ program is a
valid Z++ program with the same semantics.  If that's *nearly* the case,
as C++ is nearly a superset of C, then using the word with scare quotes
might be appropriate.  If not, then you might consider using a different word.
