a proxy registered object is just that:  someone (a provider)
registered a route object on behalf of someone else (usually their
customer)

level3 (and others) generate their customer-edge routing policies
automagically based upon the objects...if there isn't an object for
that customer prefix, they will create one in their database.  this
allows their less-clueful/poor-netizen customers to remain ignorant of
the process
