I think the problem is actually that MQ's/puppet strings can be petitioned at all if they go awry.
Isn't there a stickied post in EC forum (or used to be) saying item transfers/trading items is at your own risk?
I do not agree there should be any risk associated with transferring for strangers though (heck, even high level "reputable" people associated with RMT could therefore stain your account if you did a transfer?)
Why is a transfer any different than having unknowingly bought the item off them for plat as far as stains on account are concerned?
The real issue is that we're still waiting on my bug report regarding tradeskill containers and storing items (in classic you could store an item in a trade container like a town forge until server reset - here when you close the container the item returns to your cursor).
Item transferring would be simple if we could find obscure forges/etc. to drop the item in and get it out with a different toon (barring a full server crash).
