Is there a safe solvent that can be used to remove uncured Proseal from plexiglass?

I've found that a thumbnail works reasonably well on the cured stuff. Uncured? I'd wipe as much as possible off, then use mineral spirits or denatured alcohol to remove the residue. Alternately, wipe off as much as possible then use your thumbnail or a piece of Gorilla tape to remove whatever is left over once it cures.

A micro fiber rag also works

Don't panic too much... once you get to the point where you're ready to fly you can give the canopy a spot clean with some polish and all the smears and light scratches will be removed. Use the appropriate product of course... but its easier than you might think to remove these blemishes.
