Waypoints Account Bound
This has been brought up many times and has recieved various reactions. I dont mind if they implement this but there has to be a trade off. Make it some kind of toggle and once its turned on you lose all possible map completion relevant rewards.
not gonna happen. it will trivialize the Gift of Exploration.
Archeage = Farmville with PK
Never going to happen. Use teleport to friend.

Make it so you can choose if your character has account-bound WPs or not upon creation, but do not allow them to get the Gift of Exploration or map completion rewards if they choose to have them. Done.
You get xp from finding them …. so no
It is not difficult to run through and grab them with a character that doesn’t have world completion. The best solution is to stop being lazy.

This. I’ve actually tried this before HoT was released, and it took a little less than 10 hours (and a total of 43 level potions) to run a (mostly underleveled) character to unlock all 486 waypoints in core Tyria. She ended up at level 73 or 74 btw, so gained around 30 levels from exploration experience alone .
If you just want to unlock specific areas (world bosses, dungeons, guild mission locations) it’s pretty quick to open the main waypoints on a lvl 80 character. No need to tie them to the account in my opinion.
Exploration is the way I level my mastery without sticking in one place.
Nope.
