That would just be a pain in my opinion. It could work if the servers were pernament and you join then never leave, because then you don't have the issue of "Is my friend gone? They went to get some X and they haven't come back!". Frankly, disconnections and leaving in general spoils that idea, you can't tell who's still on because otherwise you don't know who's on at all, you just have to remember.

It's pointless really. I bet you that if you join a server there will always be at least single player you never find. If you're actually playing properly (such as defending against stealth attacks), you won't have time to find out who everyone is and what kind of stage they're at. If I want to be stealthy, it's as simple as not bringing attention to myself. That way, nobody really cares until it's too late.
