Hello Waerth,
Ask them to modify the block so as it to block only anonymous users using
those open proxies. This option is available since 2 or 3 months.
I think, it should solve both your problem (and any other registered or
future registred users one) and their problem (vandals using open proxy to
avoid being blocked).

The following mods have refused so far:
CE
Gerbennn
avanschelven
because they say open proxy blocking is correct. This means I can never
edit nl.wikipedia anymore.

I don't think it's that English Wikipedia
allows them, it's that they
haven't been blocked yet.
I don't know if Dutch Wikipedia has a formal requesting-unblock system in
place but leave some sort of message on your talk page saying the
autoblock
doesn't allow you to edit. At least on English
Wikipedia, open proxy
blocks
get lifted this way.
