This would be simple to implement as it seems its fairly simple for anet to add items to merchants and traders as we saw with the update after the dragonfestival where they added the rice wine and bean cakes. And it's not like they would have to create a new model and texture(at least for the male warrior). The model is there for both male and female, teh most work that would need to be done would be a retexturing of the female set of knights. and they've showed us taht they can do that fairly easily with the update a while back fixing the 15k tormentors and various other 15k armors.
The only reason I can see not implementing this is because players don't get to wear the same armor as NPC's. Other than that this should be a fairly simple thing to implement plus it's long overdue.
