Description Anne 2014-10-06 12:13:25 UTC 
It seems pretty clear that we do not want to impose proxies on our own objects per se. We should try to align with the standard library. Therefore I recommend we prefix these bits with legacy so people designing APIs have less inclination to sprinkle them around.
