Allow killers to invite more survivor friends when using "Play while you wait"

Its a little uncomfortable to try and play with friends who are waiting to play killer because most of the time theyre unable to leave the queue without losing their spot after waiting for so long (especially in 2v8). While you could simply let them invite survivors into the lobby i understand it might cause trouble whenever they find a killer match.

One solution could be to let them start their killer match whenever they find one. The survivor friends would have to wait in the lobby for them to finish their killer match before continuing.

Another more convenient solution could be to try and find a match for both teams (with the killer side as a priority or whatever queue is longer at the time). Once the priority side has found a match, they simply have to find another one for the side with the shorter queue, both sides starting a different match at the same time.

Alternatively, both solutions could be implemented: the first solution could be applied only if the queues for both sides are long and the second solution could be implemented if only one side has a long queue.

This feature could even be expanded so that 2 killers can use the "play while you wait" feature with 2 other killers and so on. Or It could even be extended across different game modes. For example if someone is waiting for a killer match in 2v8, they could play survivor in 1v4 while they wait.
