ProgressVote: Integration of voting-by-proxies

Users could vote directly (as shown in the sketch) but they would also have the option to delegate their vote to a representative.

The latter is a form of voting-by-proxy. It is integrated for three reasons:
 * Giving weight to experts chosen in liquid democracy
 * Enabling those -who just do not know how to interpret the data- to be represented rather than ignored or incentivised to vote on mere intuition
 * Enabling a conservative test of new forms of democratic involvement in a digital society (see “German case”)
