I really think this should be put in, and here's the reason why. (For me, at least)
Today I get a tell from a stranger to help him on a mission, I tell him I will.
He tells me he wants to use my courier, so we do.
We get in the space sector, and since he has the mission, I have no idea where the mission target is.
So I fly around for 5 minutes looking, and finally he finds the coords to it, so I make the wp and head to it.
We destroy the fighters escorting the frieghter, but now I can't see the frieghter!
So we look around for another 5 minutes, but I have to leave to take my dogs to the vet.
What I think should happen, is you get the same wp the person with the mission gets, and if it's an escort mission, you get a wp that moves with the target for escorting, just to make it easier and not take hours.

/sign!
This in particular was irritating me last night. (Seeing as my Bomber is so slow it was hard to keep up with my group mates and got lost)
NB a "nearest mission for group" might be better

AMEN!
Some missions are almost certainly designed for more than one pilot (makes sense for us Tie pilots) and the need to share mission critical data is vital. I'm sure this is just an oversight and will be fixed very soon, right?
