Documentation	A proxy entry in a dictionary of definitions. An element of this type contains a reference to a remote definition object. This entry is expected to be convenient in allowing multiple elements in one XML document to contain short (abbreviated XPointer) references, which are resolved to an external definition provided in a Dictionary element in the same XML document.
