If nothing else, I don't see why Gold Withdrawl cannot be on a 24 hour timer, as well as a 24 hour 'security' tab where withdrawls of rare stuff takes 24 hours.

Oh come on. Who really gets "Hacked?"
Every time I've ever heard of anyone getting "Hacked" in an MMO, it always comes back to "Well, Bob had my account info, Jim too" or "I just got divorced, and my wife moved out last week." The threat of keyloggers is largely overplayed in my opinion. 99% of the people who get hacked just have poor account security habits when it comes to their friends or family. The guild leader just need to be vigilent about his account info and you shouldn't have any problems anymore.
Now, as for the limit and transaction cooldown, who has oversight in that regard? If the guild leader is the only one who can withdraw that sum of money anyway, who's going to stop the transaction? Bobbycasual is going to press the red button that locks everything down when he hears at 4am that the guild leader took 2k gold out? It wouldn't prevent anything from happening, just slow down the process.
