A proxy for OL should absolutely not be an open proxy. The example 
proxies for OL are white-list proxies that require listing the WFS 
server and ports that can be used. CORS is more elegant but I dont think 
XHR in OL supports it yet??? (And as you say, requires cooperation from 
the provider though this isnt an issue here I think).

However, as per earlier email, a "proxy" for OL can be so much  more - 
doing fine-grained security filters on attributes, complex joins and 
complex calculated attributes.
