There would be no reason not to, and a village claim is very VERY simple to put up, kill 2 bears, a few deers, and you should have most of the stuff. Not to mention village chat beats the shit out of party chat.
I see that your whole theoretical idea is just made to support this argument, so I'll throw out one more example and then stop bothering since you'll probably change the criteria

Experienced player
1) - Pump AGI, warp there to village, have them set up village claim
2)Walk there
3)Ride a boat there, fastest way usually.
4)Kill your dude, start over there
New player
1)Walk there or attempt to warp to village if not too far
2)Start new character
3)Kill dude, start new character
Its not like this is a big issue, and considering OPs issue of being caught in a server crash or restart, they have already started fixing a few things,for example I've had a few crashes IN boats CARRYING boats, it seems they are now moved aside so you can safely log in instead of "Aww WARP to hearth", there are still a few exceptions, but for the most part this is the case.
This wouldn't help OP at all however, what are the chances of having a character nearby to warp to, assuming what OP really meant was having an alt, not a friend, since what the hell would a friend be doing 3SG away exactly where the boat crashed?
