According to the rules for EDH, "Abilities which refer to other cards owned outside the game (Wishes, Spawnsire, Research, Ring of Ma'ruf) do not function in Commander unless the optional sideboard rule is in use. If sideboards are used, wishes and similar cards may retrieve sideboard cards." As usual, I would presume a sideboard can't contain illegal cards.

In my opinion, this is what Karn Liberated's ultimate should have been based on:
X: Choose X cards you own from outside the game, then put them into your hand.

re; Cast through time.
If a spell moves itself into another zone as part of its resolution (as Arc Blade, All Suns' Dawn, and Beacon of Unrest do), rebound won't get a chance to apply.

although this may be a foolish question, but can you wish for cards that are banned in the format that you are playing in?
For example: I'm playing EDH (commander) and I choose to receive Balance. Do the banned rules apply to my choice, or does it have to follow the rules?
I'm assuming it does (and you can't choose Balance), because then i'd see it in many, MANY more decks.
Just imagining someone (somehow) owning Time Walk and then retrieving it from this is just a scary thought. I already know how game-ending Time Warp and Time Stretch are in EDH... never mind their richer, more eviler father.

@ DacenOctavio
If a replacement effect would cause a spell with rebound that you cast from your hand to be put somewhere else instead of your graveyard (such as Leyline of the Void might), you choose whether to apply the rebound effect or the other effect as the spell resolves.
Copypasta from the rulings on Cast Through Time... wow that's awesome! xD

Erm, Superllama? Path's an instant. You need to find a sorcery with this.
Just saying. You'd be better off with the newer Revoke Existence.

Up there with Glittering Wish as some of the best casual search cards. Pshaw, who needs a sideboard when you've got 10,000 cards to choose from.

Strange indeed, Zoah...I was surprised to learn it when I finally did. But then, I'm quite unfamiliar with eternal formats, so who knows :P

That is awesome, where you can take a completely unrelated card from another deck...oh, a Darksteel Colossus? I have nothing to exile it in my deck...aha! Here is my Path to Exile!

i'm not as much a fan of this wish because...sorcery cards aren't usually gamebreakers, especially in red.
