I think this idea is still in the "dangerous dreams we must debate on the official forums repeatedly" category.

Naysayers: further lessens the need for groups, lose boxer subs since they don't need to pay as much to fill the group, allows people to do content alone they shouldn't be able to do thereby making the game a solo adventure console game.

Pro: no one is lfg so let me make my own, views the naysayer points in a positive frame of mind

I believe there was some talk about it upcoming (not sure if it was expansion feature or not). I haven't heard anything about this in a few weeks, but this is how I understood it to work.

The option (if it were going to be implemented) would allow you to have multiple mercs on a character, but still only able to have one out at a time. IE you could have a healer merc out when you needed it, but put it away in favor of a dps merc when your group had another healer.

You saying it that way jogged my memory. I have definately read that version somewhere too. Not recalling if it was dev-posted with any likliehood though.

Now I can't seem to recall specifics either, but I was pretty certain being able to have a rotation of mercs was agreed upon as a future implementation by a dev.

Fan Faire, mentioned exactly as stated in this thread: Two mercs you can switch between, but can't have em both out at once.
