I don't necessarily think the shot clock per shot makes sense because that doesn't benefit the faster players who should get to retain the time saved for the situations where it might be actually needed.
For an example, I think 3 minutes per game is ample time for 8 ball or 9 ball, so if a player runs through 5 balls in 1 minute they still have 2 minutes for the remainder of the game to use however they see fit. More importantly, players who take forever with their excruciating pre-shot routines will time foul before the end of the game.
Also, times should count towards something as well...maybe bonus $ etc.
