This.

It would fix the one obnoxious thing about lists - people you are grouped with, but are behind you in the queue, are interested in you going LD, dieing, missing a popup, etc.

It would also most likely get rid of some /petitions when the #1 is stalling because they can't or won't kill the mob for whatever reason and the others are unwilling to help (maybe hoping they'd muscle #1 into engaging and he'd die and drop off).

Now, of course sometimes a guy would join the /list, and get lucky and win the item at #5 or #6 and be out quickly, while the #1 or #2 have maybe been there for 48 hours already, but got unlucky with the random-to-first-6 award thing. It will be sometimes frustrating. But it will all smooth out in the long run because we all have the same amount of luck, in the long run.
