Like I said I understand what you're saying but a server browser with persistent servers have more than one function other than just a map rotation.
#1. - The ability to favorite servers that you have a good connection to and enjoy playing with the players there. (particularly useful if they ever decide to support the Clan/Platoon element of Battlefield again by letting them "rent" servers, which would be nice)
#2. - The ability to set and search within certain parameters such as ping limits, if I had a choice, I wouldn't even look at a server with over a 100ms ping..
#3 - The ability to see what map/mode is playing at the moment, how many players there are and how many tickets are left so you don't end up joining a match that is literally about to end.
In a perfect world bring back the rental server program with the ability to admin them. Let players decide where and with who they play with and how.
And before somebody throws out the "BUT BaDmINs!" stuff yes it happens, it's the internet, goobers are gonna be goobers, make a note of it, move on and just don't play on that server anymore. Prior Battlefields STILL have well admined servers that have stood the test of time and are still very popular to this day.
*EDIT*
Just to be clear I support what you're proposing, what I am arguing is it doesn't go far ENOUGH.
