Well, I'm not totally sure it's nice to control NPCs, because as far as I know 
it manages more shops/buildings than individual characters :)

It could be used to control the general town development, though. But I'd 
rather see something based in part on player activity (players don't use at 
all a shop => it disappears)

Of course, we could use some algorithms and ideas from that!
