ArenaNet:Guild Wars 2 suggestions/Ready? button

(Discussion)
We are all accustomed to 8 person (or 12 person) raids, we usually ask "rdy?" and those ready will come up with "1", while those who are not rdy will say something else... when all are ready (difficult to track in the chat log) then will be the time to go.

I propose to have a system where the party leader will ask for who's ready (clicks a "Ready?" button), and then an icon with red (not ready) and green (ready) comes up next to each player in party window. Obviously the respective player must click it to show that he/she is ready.


 * Why this is a good idea
 * will not end up with players not ready for a mission
 * eliminates AFK-ers and possible leechers


 * Why it may not work out
 * development problems / time frames
