I support this, as I recently thought about something similar.

While I generally use the hirarchy method of ordering places, I sometimes create places that have no fixed location yet. I have several Inns, Merchants and stores pre-created to choose from when I need it.

For example I have a clockmaker workshop with original (imho) characters that I created over the holidays. Now I could just put it in city A, B or C and either the PCs never encounter it or I need to create a quest just to utilize it.
My approach is to leave it in a list of stores without fixed location and whenever a PC needs something a clockmaker could sell, I pull it out of the list and stuff it in the city the PCs a currently in and there it will then find its permanent place.

I suspect I'm not the only DM working like this...
