So when more humans join in they are still flying in formation. If you do this with single planes (not groups) obviously this doesn't work.

If I understand correctly this will not work for non-flyable AI like Wellingtons? Also when hosting a coop it is not known in advance if anyone will fly bombers thus it is necessary to set waypoints even for flyable bombers and they will fly away.
The easiest way is still to use Banks' COOP-Lobby IMO:
1. copy any coop or offline mission to a missions folder
2. copy Banks' script to the same folder
3. rename the script file to match the name of mission file
4. GO.
Maybe after patch when crashes are fixed more people test it and provide feedback and bugreports.
