Would this remove references to previous or now defunct controller accounts?  I have some old controller accounts that I can't seem to reap due to existing references and no way to remedy it.

[@Paradox](HqRcfhH8VXMhuCk5JXe28WMgDDuW9MVDVNofe1nnTcefVZn-kusama) I don't think so. We're generally seeing more and more issues around accounts becoming un-reap-able due to bugs in references, and I believe that this issue requires its own ground-up investigation and fix. 

Thanks for the well described proposal. Is this all controllers in Kusama, or a subset? How many mores do we need? Noticing that my current account linked to this account is in fact a controller, but I am not in that list. 

Another somewhat important question I have is how much is the weight of this proposal, and will it execute okay in the wasm context? 

More technical details: This will be executed `on_initialize`, which means if it is overweight or even worse it triggers some kind of an out-of-memory issue, the chain can be in serious trouble. 

Can you please test the proposal, perhaps with https://xlc.github.io/chopsticks-web/#/?endpoint=wss%3A%2F%2Fkusama-rpc.polkadot.io&blockHeight=latest or equivalent? I will defer voting until this matter is resolved. 

This referendum will result in a failed execution - please vote Nay. An updated referendum for deprecating controller accounts will be posted at a later date.
