You can have prepared flight-groups to take over to avoid wrong load-outs and/or planes.
At the same time you can let every pilot choose plane and load-out and then spawn.
As for the mission start on the same time, i fail to see the need for that, either you wait before mission start and join together or you join and wait in game.
Of course all that would be easier with the old gui, but then the priority is not that high, i imagine, as there are possibilities to do it without.

You miss the point then of a CooP most treat them like DF servers anyway sometimes.
CooP's create scenarios and or particular recreations of actual historical missions events or even sometime plain old fun.
At the moment the CooP isnt a CooP is a glorified DF you need to have all ac start at the same time If you are a flight leader and have ai starting ahead of you because you are arming fuelling your ac the sync of the mission is displaced all its needs is the Battle start to happen after everyones ready to start.
If you have ever flown IL2 1946 CooP you will know the procedure we have a ready room and a debriefing room with mission scores and stats.
Theres nothing in CoD to show the CooP's ended or the maps won and how well the pilots did.
As for priorities, many of us CooP pilots never use DF servers as they become boring very quickly, especially if you are a mud mover,
so having a non functioning Coop GUI is as bad has having no Df server GUI for us.
At best the restriction on servers is down to a few Df servers guru's that understand scripts and make it half interesting, but this is left to a select few FMB'ers.
Get the CooP function working properly then the online campaign wars can start also.
