This would be VERY surprising - "ip proxy-arp" makes a difference only
if one of the devices sends ARP requests for IP addresses that are 
off-link (specifically: that the router with "ip proxy-arp" knows to be 
off-link and has a route for it).

Your routers on both sides shouldn't do any ARPing for off-link addresses
unless one of them has a static route pointing to the ethernet itself
("ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 ethernet0" is a quite typical example).

dot1q-tagging the management interface sounds like a good plan, though :)
