    That's really not how it's going to work.
    Let's say a new dps is queueing for Sastasha and need people from the leveling roulette queue. The tank - already a rare resource - marked Sastasha as their 'ew, no' dungeon. But that tank is #1 in queue and there's also a healer. so instead of finally getting their queue to pop after about half an hour of waiting, that poor newbie dps has to stand there while the tank steals the healer and two other dps to something that isn't Sastasha.
    DPS queues become even longer for dungeons that are mandatory either for MSQ or other content like GC ranks.
    Will that newbie dps get in eventually? Yeah, from the mentor roulette. And there goes the Mentor who insta-bailed because they don't wanna do Sastasha, either.

    tl;dr your suggestion is bad and you should feel bad, before we even get to the needless complications this would introduce to the matchmaking system. Don't wanna run those dungeons? Skip the roulette or take the penalty.

    Speak for yourself, those are the first two dungeon's I'd pick if this became a thing, which is why its good its not a thing.
