Character-occurrence finiteness conjecture for elliptic curves over the maximal abelian extension

Let EE be an elliptic curve over Q\mathbb{Q}, and let XX be the set of even characters of Gal(Qab/Q)\operatorname{Gal}(\mathbb{Q}^{\operatorname{ab}}/\mathbb{Q}). Character-occurrence finiteness conjecture. The set

{χX: order(χ)7, order(χ)8,10 or 12, and χ occurs in E(Qab)}\{\chi\in X:\ \operatorname{order}(\chi)\geq 7,\ \operatorname{order}(\chi)\neq 8,10\text{ or }12,\text{ and }\chi\text{ occurs in }E(\mathbb{Q}^{\operatorname{ab}})\}

is finite. The source presents this as a conjectural restriction on character components of Mordell–Weil groups over the maximal abelian extension, with no resolution supplied.
