Just FYI: Removing liquid BTS from voting power will strip ref UI users of their voting since you can only stake BTS with CLI.
Questions:
- Does mobile support staking?
- Do you have someone in mind that could update UI? Or does committee have funding for it?
- cashback voting power is kept intentionally?
- Liquid tickets means someone is actively seeking a say in governance, I would find it acceptable to give them 1x voting power

* Liquid tickets means someone is actively seeking a say in governance, I would find it acceptable to give them 1x voting power
If giving liquid tickets 1x voting power, then nothing is changed, the vote buying will still be kept intentionally like beos and cn-vote now doing.
Otherwise, cn-vote or beos still can get the vote buying voting power from encouraging and seducing their supporter to lock the bts after this update, ok, cn-vote has done this.
I think the root problem is the defect of DPOS governance, the holders didn't need the sustained investment and spending, so they didn't have the enough motivation to govern the chain, especially some holders were zero cost holders.
On this chain, only the witnesses need sustained investment and spending to maintain the chain like miner of pow.

Note: Uptick also supports creating and updating of voting tickets, in latest release. (Admittedly that is still a cli solution.... but still friendlier than and an alternative to cli_wallet.)
Re: liquid tickets. "liquid" isn't a ticket target type. One doesn't create "liquid" tickets. Rather it is a state that a ticket is in while it's still charging towards a lock target. (Although if the funds in the ticket are votable while it is in the charging/"liquid" state, then one could game the system by initiating a lock ticket and cancelling it prior to the next_auto_update_time, which, If I'm understanding correctly, would give you a few days of 1x voting power without actually committing you to the lock period.)

Yes it will strip users who only use the ref UI. However not only users can stake with CLI because the mobile client supports staking already.
cashback voting power is kept intentionally?
Thanks for noticing this. I overlooked it. Will fix.

It can be gamed as @christophersanborn said:

@shulthz changes to witnesses will be considered in next releases. Thanks for your ideas anyway.
