Banks with Exchange Rates.

Banks with Exchange Rates, I don't think I've seen this idea here before but I could be wrong.
We currently have three different types of currency in this game: Gold, Alliance Points and Tel Var Stones.
Rather than using BoP to get folks to play different types of content how about having Banks with Floating exchange rates.
Basically you trade this currency for that currency.
If ZOS wanted to shift players from one type of play to another whether it be to draw in more players or to even out the servers they could have Banks with Exchange rates for the three different currencies based off of where they want to set them at the time.
It could allow folks to play one way and purchase something from the other play style without forcing them to do the content.
It could control the high end of prices on certain items (although I don't mind the high prices, I make a lot of gold from it, it may help others)
If to many folks started playing one way just to make more coin, ZOS could adjust the exchange rate to shift the population to another type of play to boost population in that type of content.
Above all it would, in my opinion, give an alternate way of controlling the things they (ZOS) seem to want to control with BoP items and they could be done away with (for the most part). It would also give folks the means to use their high reserves in one currency to buy something that requires a different currency.
I know it is getting late and it is silly, but I thought I'd throw it out there anyways while it was on my mind.
