Raid zones should always have a 2nd zone option
The cap on RWZ is somewhat self-correcting, because people who are doing missions will drop out of RWZ 1 as they enter an instanced map. They'll then be forced to RWZ 2 if they exit their mission after the zone is filled. Someone will only really be hogging a spot if they're hanging around outdoors for an extended period without participating in the raid, which I don't expect would occur all that often.
I feel your pain on the hunts during Rikti/Zombie invasions, though. Usually you can just go and do another mission, sucks if you're running a Numina TF though.

Note: I'm not saying that we should try to change player behavior but just add an option as encouragement.
Mainly refering to RWZ here but there should always be a Rikti War Zone 2 option. This way players can do raids in the 2nd map, leaving the 1st one for people who don't care about the raid. Raids have a habit of capping the map which can be annoying for someone that just wants to do missions and can't get to RWZ. And if they do get in then they're taking up a slot for someone that wants to do the raid.
Another related topic is when they spawn things like the zombie invasion or the rikti invasion that the game create a 2nd zone option for the zone it's in. And then have the invasion in that zone. That way plays can still play normally. I can't tell you how annoying it is when you have a "kill x monster in zone y" mission and that map is currently being invaded so ALL THE MONSTERS ARE GONE. Also it would stop people from going "get away from the black market guys the drones are kill them" "no I'm doing stuff and I don't care about the invasion leave me alone".
