Definitely some interesting stuff! I will have to check this out more when I get a bit more time. I think this code could definitely be useful at some point. I don't want you to feel like your submissions are getting ignored though. If this can be finalized and get the quest commands added, this could actually be some really useful code. With limited resources for creating content, some of the more popular custom servers may have bottlenecks in some zones that are very popular. Maybe adding 1 instance during peak times, or when needed, would help balance out players and content. So, a small server with limited content could still be enjoyed by many.

Anyway, it is definitely something worth looking into more. I was wondering why you named the setting "instZOrgID" instead of something like "instZoneID". I am all for anything that is clear and as simple as possible. So, naming settings after what they are used to set is IMO the best way.
