Description

Originally reported by: **BitBucket: [ceridwenv](http://bitbucket.org/ceridwenv), GitHub: @ceridwen**

---

Now that we're using wrapt and lazy_object_proxy, would replacing bases.Proxy make sense? Even if we don't need the broader functionality, it would remove some code.

Research direction

Start by locating bases.Proxy and reviewing the existing use of wrapt and lazy_object_proxy in the repository. Determine whether either library can replace bases.Proxy without changing required behavior, and document the scope and compatibility implications before attempting the refactor.
