Description

I tried the awesome validator manager that comes with lighthouse (https://lighthouse-book.sigmaprime.io/validator-manager-move.html). Specifically the move command as it is much better than some custom scripts I had. It works fine but has one important flaw.

It moves the validator from one VC to another successfully but it ignores the suggested_fee_recipient that's inside the validator_definitions.yml for the validator. It moves it without any fee recipient. So for VCs that run validators for multiple people/groups, each with different fee recipient the moving is incomplete in the sense that all fee recipients configurations are not moved and default to the default one given by the CLI.

You can provide a suggested-fee-recipient for a group of validators when you move them through the tool but that is still too manual. Detecting the source fee recipient and entering it in the target validator definitions yml should be done.

Version

5.1.1. stable.

Present Behaviour

validator's suggested fee recipient is not moved

Expected Behaviour

it should be 🐇

Miscellaneous

The validator manager could also get some extra utility functions. Such as editing a validator (or validators) fee recipient and other editablefields. Deleting validators. And also querying a VC's validators. All things that can be done via the API but having the manager do it would be useful. Can open other issues for those if you believe it a valid request.
