Description
Since TPOT is a GP framework, an interesting feature would be have the possibility of reguralize its evolution with a lifetime of the pipeline.
That would mean that a pipeline can only survive "n" generation and then 'die'.
## Context of the issue
This technique was proposed in a recent google paper where they used evolutionary programming for automatically designing a deep neural network achitecture (that eventually became the actual state-of-the-art in various computer vision problems).
This technique end up in keeping not "good individuals" that have had a perhaps noisy good value on a particular dataset, but rather a good ancestral code that can last the test of time.
This was a somewhat poetic description, but the paper is much more detailed about:

It should not be too difficult to implement.
What do you think about it?
