Well, my issue is with linking NPCs with zones is that many NPCs can exists in many different zones... so what then? I am thinking that simply blocking off the first two or three hundred thousand NPCID's and just having the NPCs there, in no particular order. If you attempt to order in any way, then you introduce ambiguity to your standardizing system. Just make it so that all non-custom NPCs are ID <300,000 and standardized from db variant to db variant.
