Rainbow Reidemeister conjecture for isotopic surfaces

Let two rainbow diagrams represent isotopic surfaces. A rainbow moves conjecture. Any two rainbow diagrams representing isotopic surfaces are related by a sequence of rainbow moves. This would give a move-theoretic characterization of isotopy for surfaces represented by rainbow diagrams; the supplied text does not state whether the claim is known or unresolved.
