Anything goes really. All that is needed is a client and trading faction that does not have straight access to all the goods easily. And then all the opposive forces are invited to the feast.
The main thing for proposing a prolonged event is to get more people to participate and to give the opposing side chance to react. Plus a longer term action gives people a chance to see this thing develope properly on it's own. So no strict screenplay would be needed, but things would play out on their own and maybe inspired a few side quests for terrorists/pirates etc.
I'm fairly sure this kind of relatively open and prolonged event would present a lot things that could have been better or more enjoyable in a one day event. But we all can think this a beta version of which, if the event is successful, to improve on in the future.
But like I said I'd like to stress that a fairly active client is needed to be able to receive the goods and post screenies of the delivery.
EDIT: I was not aware of the HGL. Be seeing you in your dump.
EDIT2: If the BPA/QC are willing to play the customer (or any two client/traders factions) I think were are on to something here and I can seriously start to draft something in events section.
