I am creating a 4E campaign based around the idea of an "endless urban sprawl", created by Old Ones. I am going with the idea of a sentient city where the whole city is a vast, and self regulating magical construct, though the setting itself will have elements of low magic and simulation once the basic premise is accepted; that ancient magic was so powerful that it could alter the very nature of the world itself.
I am hoping to create a sandbox style adventure where the explorations of the City are the essential element of the adventure, wih site based adventures triggering off of PC exploration. It will also be non-scaling, so that the issue of balance reverts to the players.
Firstly, what do people think of this background idea? Do you think this would fly as a published module? Would anyone be interested in other versions of D&D stats: e.g. AD&D, 3.5E etc?
To this end, I have created this map in Photoshop CS4 and would like people's opinions, since I am preparing artwork with a view to possible publication at some time in the future. Apologies for the colours; I have an ongoing issue with my monitor which means they don't look over-saturated to me but might to you.
The actual image is also much more detailed, but I couldn't upload the whole file and it is obviously a work in progress.
Since EN World can't really upload such large files, I will have to direct you here to see the map (sorry).

What would you think if you saw this in a published module? What would you like to see?
