Generally I agree with you that #+begin_proof should be a thin wrapper 
unlike a source code block. However I am not familiar with 
fontification, so I can not reason if it is feasible. Maybe the code is 
watching if something like #+end_proof appeared, so block finished.
On the other hand my impression was that \begin{proof} environment is 
intended to emphasize a paragraph or two to separate it from regular 
text on the same page. My expectation is that 4-page long proof should 
be formatted as ordinary sections and subsections.
If proof environment is still required, maybe it is possible to 
customize export backend to have proofs as a headings with some property 
in the source document. E.g. beamer backend converts headings to frames. 
I have never tried such tricks, so I am unaware how much work is 
required for such approach.
