Wow! This is really awesome. I love that you don't have to have the classes
loaded in the image to deal with the proxies. I've been running into a
problem lately that I have many images with overlapping domains that need to
talk to each other.

But it could be problem if you will manage your domain objects be transferred as value. Different format of objects in such cases will be problem.

It's gotten messy because by default I use
SimplePersistence and it's easy to get into hairy situations where the data
gets unsynced. Could Seamless be appropriate for general inter-image
communication or is there a better alternative?

It is appropriate. But one important feature is absent now. It is distributed garbage collection.

During network lifetime unused proxies and references are not collected. It can be performed only manually (for example when you close network and it collected by itself or there is "network destroy" command).

Alternative of course is classic http services (Zinc) without any magic.
