Secondary server choice while in queue

When looking at all servers with a queue, feels like a lot of those in a queue could easily fill up another server if they somehow managed to coordinate another server selection.
And one way to do that, is to add a secondary server choice selection. You can still join a queue of a server, but if there's an indicator telling how many are willing to hop on that secondary server, maybe a new server would fill up faster.
Maybe servers could have a customizeable bar that once reached, all those in queue will load the secondary server.

I would love to just be able to jump into the first available out of an entire selection of servers. There is nothing worse than waiting on a server, only to see another server have it's game end way sooner than you thought and you can't disconnect and join that server fast enough.
I also wanted to write about this for a long time. Here are some screenshots describing the situation:
Another thing that could be done is add a chatlobby for the queue, so that people could coordinate there what server to hop to.
I suggest adding the ability to create an artificial queue.
When you click on a half-empty server, a window pops up and runs a reverse report for the connection. I suggest adding a button in this window to join the queue. You will have to have time to join the queue while the countdown is running to connect. Then some second window appears where we can specify the current settings for automatic connection. Thus, to give the opportunity to add yourself to the queue immediately on a few servers
i usually join a seed server and then queue up for the server i want to actually join. Then you can play while you are in the queue.
