The pseudocode for checking if the object has a [[Handler]], and if
that [[Handler]] has a trap, and then invoking the trap could all be
factored out into a [[Trap]] (or something) internal method, which
takes a trap name, and a list of arguments to pass to the trap, and
returns whether or not the object has the trap, and if so, also a
return value from the trap.  This would make for a very concise and
clear spec with regard to proxies, and it would be relatively easy to
update the current proposal to do this.
