I support @anon proposal. Governance is the most important utility and biggest power of the network. We can’t underestimate it.  
I was sharing similar ideas in the recent [Evolving Algorand Governance - #160 by robert](https://forum.algorand.co/t/evolving-algorand-governance/6646/160) thread.

However, I think that:

- governance should be more fluid - restricting proposals only to gov periods is a too big limitations
- locking tokens for more engagement makes sense - however I would use liquid staking solution here.

@anon idea looks to be an evolution to Cosmos x/gov – which is battle tested.

One more thing which is good to consider is expenditure proposal process - where in a case of a crisis we are able to establish a fast gov process to submit changes.
