If they can't implement things like certain specs only being allowed to need certain sets of gear (ex. prot pallies needing dps 1handers), they sure as hell can't implement something like GDKP.
there is a fine line between "can't implement" and "won't spend the time to implement".
programmatically it's not that difficult, if for no other reason than mod authors have already done 90% of the legwork, all blizzard would need to do would be to steal their code for bidding and tracking and admin, and then just take the gold if you win.
i mean i guess they could/should implement a window where you input bids instead of in chat, and maybe put a confirmation popup. could model that off of a very scaled down AH.
basically the majority of the functionality they would need exists in game or in mod.
but then i don't blame them for not implementing it anyways, that's the type of thing you would either put in a fresh game or an expansion, some time when you are dedicating lots of man hours to new functionality and not just putting in the next finished instance or tweaking. cataclysm is too far along for them to start a project of that nature.
