IO'm probably being dense, but I don't seen the issue. This sounds like further support for the idea of direct forwarding of private symbol based internal methods to the ultimate target without any observability by the Proxy handlers. If the concern is abstractions that are directly implemented using Proxy (rather than things like membrane wrappers) then the implementation of the abstraction knows about this behavior and can structure its target object to handle its private Symbol property requests.
