On the other hand, a musketeer would complete the 2x2 look they have going right now (2 tanks, 2 healers, 2 melee, 2 casters.... 1 ranged)

While it won't *fix* the problem, it will address it to some extent. As soon as you add a new class, people tend to flock to it to check it out (novelty). Even if only a small number of people stick with it, you're still getting more tanks (a tank that swaps classes is still a tank, but a DPS or healer that swaps is now a tank).
That's the hope, but I honestly can't think of any time I've seen this pan out in an actual MMO.
