I believe that once the optimal solution of how to organize matchmaking is found (and we have resources to implement it), it will be added to the game. That's just a question of time.
I believe if matchmaking were to be re-implemented, it would make user servers obsolete. Why would someone want to go to a betting lobby if they can just play quick games? Obviously that is not he issue though.
The ranking system as of now is completely screwed up. If I win a game, my elo goes down, if I lose it goes down, and even with some mods, I lose and it goes up. Unless the ranking system goes back to the original system, it will be hard to implement matchmaking servers that actually work properly.
