Proposal: Permit transfer of neuron ownership

I think it’s been a long time since we’ve heard an official position statement from DFINITY on neuron markets. It would be helpful if DFINITY would reaffirm previous positions or officially announce new positions. I know John isn’t with DFINITY any more, so perhaps @bjoernek or @diegop could indicate if we are likely to get additional, formal feedback from DFINITY on this topic.

• DFINITY still has concerns on neuron markets for security reasons. In particular, we believe that it should be difficult to transfer neurons in order to ensure that neurons have skin in the game and thus vote in the long-term interest of the IC.
• The team is still exploring ideas on how to make it more difficult to transfer neurons (or provide additional incentives to neurons which are not transferable).
