If you only have time to level one character, and you want a good grouping character, Mage is not the best choice either, because Monk/Rogue will out DPS them, and DPS is the role they generally fill.

My experience with xp groups is that they look to fill roles and take a class that is sufficient for it, e.g. "docks seeks <Healer|Tank|DPS|CC|Puller>," and that mages are perfectly welcome in the DPS role.
I post the above because you have kind of gone full circle from roughly arguing that groups not gear checking implies they don't consider dps to be a significant role to arguing that because rogues outdamage mages, mages are a significantly worse grouping class. In my experience neither extreme is true: xp groups seek dps, but they're not so tight about it that they reject mages while waiting for rogues.
