Why can't your proxy be a derived class that claims to inherit from those same base classes, but just happens to override all the methods (and attributes).

Because that means you can't use generic proxy objects (e.g. zope.proxy or ProxyTypes).

Luckily, however, proxies can lie about their class (since Python 2.3) and thereby fool isinstance().
