    I think this idea is pretty interesting. Unfortunately it would probably never work due to system limitations. The game currently uses some algorithm to fill the slots needed to run a specific piece of content based on the three roles. What you suggest would require it to also perform some kind of search on all currently queued players to see if you've commended them before. Even without considering limits on how long this information would be stored, it would be quite the operation, especially on larger world/clusters where there are potentially thousands of players looking for a group at a given time.

    It also might not be very common for the people you commend to be on when you are looking for random stuff like roulette. For specific content (like Alex-normal) you're already likely to run into the the same people over and over again during the same time period, so again it wouldn't be as useful.

    I don't want to sound negative, because when I first read your idea I really liked it, but I think that there are a number of complications at play.
