I was thinking about the Jove event mishap. I know one NPC ship was supposed to blow up but the other was attacked by players (correct me if I'm wrong here).
So I'm guessing If a player attacks an NPC event ship there are no more reprocussions than attacking a trade convoy. Though realistically I would think that Concord would protect a diplomat ship the same as a player ship.
If this is not the case there is a problem (in high sec space). If one player attacks an NPC ship during an event no players can attack that player because that would most definitely make Concord attack and kill the player who is defending the event NPC.
I'm not quite sure as to a solution to this problem (or if others see this as a problem) but I thought I'd throw the idea out.
The "easiest" solution I could think of would be to temporarily lower the security rating of an event system(while warning players ahead of time). Of course there is no way this would work out as it would become a frag fest in a pool of lag rather than an event.

An easy solution would be to make anyone who commits an act of aggression to be "Fair Game" for 15 minutes after that act. Then Concord and anyone else who wanted to take a potshots at the person would be able to.

You got the event a bit wrong..
No NPC ship was ever supposed to blow up.. There was never gonna be any "real" ship, it would just have been in the news, it was not planed that people should gather..
The reason the other Jove ship, which was not a NPC, but PC, showed up was becuase people was getting anoyed and started to whine that the event was bad.. (Go away whiners.. go away..)..

Most tired of thing atm:

People really should have stopped whinging. The event never stated that Baniya was going to appear in person in space, just be in each system. And then use a fantastic new toy to fly around in space. At no point did the news mention actually flyiness.
What buggs me is the whole slaughtermonkies instantly went 'KILL THE JOVE'. Anyone who went 'Thats a silly idea' got shouted down.
Unfortuneatly, myISP went down in the middle of the event, otherwise I was going to have shield boosted our esteemed visitor. However, one frigate, no matter how insanely hard, was never going to be enough. However, a Jove fleet, that might have been a good option.
However, props to CCP for giving the children there toy. I just hope that the Jove go kick the hell out the monkies who did it. And there corp.
