I can confirm that only one person can loot the nightmare fragments for the green scepter shard quest. We've had nightmare fragments drop while we were clearing dragonkin before taking on one of the green dragons. Only one person with the quest could loot them.
As for the practicality of farming nightmare fragments for everyone on the quest line, all I have to say is "good luck". This grind is only slightly less annoying that collecting 48,000 slithid carapaces. The Maws potion of the blue quest line is also difficult to complete, as it requires 10 elementium to create the buoy. With so many people clamoring over the blessed qiraji items I doubt guilds will be able to spare their elementium for a very long time.
Like MongoJerry said, the only part of the quest that is easy to complete on a weekly basis is the red shard scepter. Thankfully the shadow resist rewards are pretty good. :)
