Comment:

 It's worth noting that wfn's code only gets triggered during
 `configure_proxy`, that is while the managed proxy protocol is happening.
 So, if the managed proxy protocol completes, any stderr messages from the
 PT will be ignored.

 It might be a good idea to keep an ear on PTs all the time, so that we can
 catch any exceptions that applications throw in the middle of their
 runtime (after configured as managed proxies).

 Marking this as needs_revision, till we decide on behavior.
