Thanks for writing this PR, seeing it written down makes me like it clear that I'm not a fan of this change.

One can certainly implement a proxy that doesn't validate the frames, but for this proxy to receive a single H3 connection on the front and send multiple H3 connections out the back, it's going to have to do more than blindly proxy.  For example, there's only one control stream, and I can't imagine how it's possible to run QPACK anything but hop-by-hop.  It also has to map push Ids, etc.

If there's some practical use case I'm missing, please tell me, but in most cases, blindly proxying these frames wouldn't even work, with the DATA frame being the possible exception?
