You can see the pseudo code very soon... But, consider that [[GetOwnProperty]] needs to return a descriptor record for internal use, and Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor needs to use [[GetOwnProperty]] to properly dispatch to different kinds of objects. Get get an exotic descriptor back from the Proxy [[GetOwnProperty]] implementation there needs to be a way to pass a regular object that might include exotic attributes along so that Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor can return it.
It doesn't effect anything in any JS level APIs, just makes them work with exotic property descriptors.
