The proxy approach looks good, will try it out later and if i dont get work, 
I'll delete the gui jars.

I tried 'Encode canonical WFS schema location' and the schema location in 
GetCapabilites is now cleared ;-)
But the <OnlineResource> Tags still tell the 'hostname:port'.
I also filled out the WFS Option 'OnlineResource' and restarted geoserver, but 
with no effect.
Should it override the url in OnlineResource-Tag?
