When a user executes an extrinsic as a proxy of an account, the extrinsic is signed by their account but executes from the proxy account. That means the extrinsic is displayed in the extrinsic history of the proxy account, not the account being proxied (the real account)
This means currently proxied accounts onchain, especially anon proxies, have very little useful information (especially if they are not making transfers).
It may be useful to add a tab on the account page containing all extrinsics with proxy.executed (and proxy.announced) events filtered by real matching the account address - this should be technically similar to the transfers tab.
Use cases
Having useful onchain history for anon proxies (and more complete history for accounts with proxies that are not anon)
Allowing users and organisations like exchanges to monitor announcements on their proxies in a single location
Additional factoids or references
Currently I am using the ryabina telegram bot to monitor announcements on the shokunin.network treasury account, but that is not very easy to teach people to use. Being able to monitor announcements on subscan would be especially useful.
Network(s)
