I have. I made an alt. The OP mentioned that he has multiple friends spread across multiple level brackets and it's hard to get a level teen something, 30 something, 50 something, 60 something, and a 70 playing together, but there's really no solution that wouldn't take an inordinate (for the size of this "problem") amount of time. I say that any solution would take too much time because this is not a large enough problem and it already has a few, though less than ideal, solutions.

I wish I knew how to say "no shit" without being a dick, but I don't. This is like pointing out that the sky is blue on nice days. You can still play with them, either at their level or above their level. Roll an alt if you want to play with them 1-cap, wait for them to catch up to an existing alt, or just plain wait for level cap.

This is the question, and I really don't think the problem is as big a deal ("resounding yes") as you make it out to be. Would it make life slightly easier on a very small portion of the player base? Absolutely. Is the relief that it would bring on the portion of the population it applies to worth the development time? I think the answer is a resounding no.
