I think you are wrong here.

I can see now sign in nxproxy that it connects differently to NXWin than to any other X-Server.

And I could run a remote XTerm with NXWin just fine.

Though you would need three translations here:

internal nxagent -> external nxagent -> Windows winid.

Yes, much easier. Same problem occurs using a forwarded cups channel by adding cups=1 and cups=8000 to the proxies.
