Personally i would love to see things like:

Passive mobs moving away from you
curious mobs back, but with a lesser follow then they had before

NPC's Channing from day/night,
NPC's walking off so they are not their every day all day unless they need to be.
NPC's movign around town's camps (just for show to make them feel more alive)
Changing of the city/camp guards (maybe groups walk to a camp, swap and the old npcs walk back)

It's the kinda fluff that won't make or break the game, but it would give FFXIV something over other mmo's atm, yes its not something you pay attention to, but it could really ad to the Emerson level and make it stand out..
You do realize making XIV stand in in the whole purpose of ARR, right? Making it stand out is going to take a lot more than mobile NPCs.
