Question directred towards SE - Cross Realm Friends Lists/Dungeon Queues

Hello! I don't really post very often on these forums, and as such I'm not sure if this topic has ever been discussed before. I figured I'd post it here, and do plan to post this question in the next live letter.

I wonder if SE has any plans to make it so that you can add players from other servers to your friends. This will allow you to talk with friends that may play the game, but are on different servers. Additionally, I wonder if they also have plans to take that one step further, and will allow you to invite said friends to your party, so that you can queue up together in Duty Finder. The only way I see them implementing this is by giving everyone a unique tag that is related to your username, similar to how WoW does it.

I'd love a feature like this. I started this game about a month ago and was unable to start on my friends realm (Gilgamesh) so I ended up making a character on a different realm. This feature would be very useful as opposed to paying to transfer!

Yes, it has been suggested multiple times, but SE said basically that they couldn't do anything about it (at that time).

I think it would absolutely be worth it (and increase player retention / sense of "Community") if we had Cross Server Friends List and Cross Server Parties with Friends.

It would go a long way to getting more stuff done, and adding a sense of friends.
