If they made questing more efficient, by, say, allowing you greater flexibility in how many quests you keep open, this purpose would be defeated.  If you could have 50 quests in your log at once, it would be possible to level through quest-XP much more quickly than you can now.  This would mean many more high-level toons hitting the level cap more quickly who would all be clamouring for a lot of new high-level content, hero classes, battlegrounds, etc.

At least for me, the time sink doesn't work. Do I rather spend tons of times, travelling far arround to complete a single quest and then going back, or stay in a zone doing something else?? I stay, I simply tend skipping the quests that are time consuming instead.

EDIT: Thinking more on it, I think it is more a time sink to actually allow more quests since that mean I do travell arround more, instead of staying put and ifnnish of the ones I got. I travell alot depending on the mood and what quest I want to finnish of for the moment.

If they feel the game can't handle you doing many quests at once due to high XP; the obvious solution is to lower the reward no? Not force you to do LESS quests. After all, one of the main points of the game is their quest system.

Since quest rewards are level related anyway, it would not be so much of an issue anyway since you soon end up getting very little XP for all those extra quests you want to finnish. There are enough quests for you to level efficiently anyway.
There are three types of people in the world. Those who can count and those who can't.
