Proxies are special objects which serve as mostly-transparent

wrappers around another object, intervening in the apparent behavior of

the wrapped object only when necessary to apply the policy (e.g., access

checking, location brokering, etc.) for which the proxy is responsible.

zope.proxy is implemented via a C extension module, which lets it do things

like lie about its own ``__class__`` that are difficult in pure Python (and

were completely impossible before metaclasses).  It also proxies all the

internal slots (such as ``__int__``/``__str__``/``__add__``).
