I have a home that is groaning too fast... could I create settlers to go to a planet with tons of extra homes?

Nope. Factions won't allow you forcibly resettling their population using your military ships.

What if it is the same faction and volunteers only?

This idea has come up before. As i recall, the TB's indicated that a ship solution was not going to happen for some combination of lore and programming. The TB's have mentioned the possibility of a solution that uses the Politics system and some sort of treaty or agreement between factions. Maybe a treaty to push low morale/quality systems to become independent?
Unexpected, uncontrollable population growth is one thing that sets ST4X apart from other 4X games. At first i found it frustrating, but now I view it as one of the unique challenges. The fastest growing system in my latest game had only 7 Quality. Tor most of the early game morale on this system was low and income was negative--the system was costing me money at a time when money was very tight. But, I kept with it, and eventually turned it around. That was rewarding.

It is one of the core mechanics of ST 4X.
The most likely solution will be giving the player a way to convert a Planet to Independent, which will halt refugee Population growth.

Turn colonies to independent at will? That would be freaking awesome! It could come with a penalty though. Turning a Cadar world into independent with politics? Other Cadar worlds will loose morale because you basically "sold them off" or something similar. |

Part of them problem is that this idea came well after the balancing graph was solved. Wedging this new concept into the equation isn't easy, and thus far I haven't found a solution. |

Perhaps on top of the Morale costs, have it cost a lot of EP and Credits. This would represent the fact that it would take a lot of political pressure and a lot of money greasing the gears to get the Factions to relinquish a planet.

I agree -- the cost will be quantified in Morale, EP and Credits. =) |
