Credit transfers... an imminent need for cooperative play

I hope that with the release of gamma there is some way for us to transfer credits to other commanders. I realize this would open up doors to "gold selling" issues like in other online games but honestly I feel that it is absolutely necessary for cooperative game-play between commanders. At the very least allow us to not have goods flagged stolen when dropped / picked up by commanders who are listed as friends.
 
This. Very much this. I ran into the same issue a few days ago- I was in a system which had everything to complete a friends mission, and he was in one that had everything for mine. We met in the middle, and found out trading it meant it was marked as stolen :-(
 
Trading Credits and Modules would be really great. A friend wanted to help me out on my viper but he just couldn't. He ended up buying some gold, dropping it and me selling it on the black market but alot of credits were lost in that process :/

This will probably be available in the gamma release:
