Hmm, so you're arguing that proxy.__proto__ would be equivalent to
Object.getPrototypeOf(proxy), and trigger the "getPrototypeOf" trap, rather
than triggering the "get" trap?

I guess that more accurately reflects the magical behavior of __proto__.

Paradoxically, this will move the filter check into the proxy
implementation itself, to properly intercept proxy["__proto__"]. On first
sight, this seems to introduce more overhead.

Cheers,
Tom
