Introduce Community Ownership Transfer for Head Moderators on Lemmy? (lemmy.world)

Do you think Lemmy should introduce a feature allowing the head moderator of a community to transfer ownership to another moderator, similar to Discord's server ownership transfer functionality?

What advantages and challenges do you foresee with implementing such a system, and how might it impact community governance and continuity on the platform?

Would adding this feature help foster stronger community management dynamics, or could it lead to potential misuse or instability in some cases?

How might Lemmy balance flexibility for moderators with safeguards to ensure fair and consistent ownership transfers?
