Seems good to me. Some comments:

You mention that a reactor will probably be used for implementing the 
proactor. On windows it really doesn't make sense to do this it think. 
Instead overlapped IO should be used since it maps very well with the 
proactor pattern. I also suggest that you specify which OSes you will 
make support for. If that is only e.g. linux then building on reactors 
is the right way to go as you've planned.
