Where I come from we don't do it any other way and it feels weird to me that I would need to ask OOC permission to RP with someone. Doesn't mean I never have any OOC communication, and I obviously wouldn't just intrude if it is an event.
But random RP? They'll have to deal with my character IC! I'm just gonna say it regardless of how stuck-up it sounds. If you don't want to be approached by strangers, don't RP in a public area such as a tavern!
Maybe that is strange to some people, but I am from the EU and I don't know a single EU player with the mindset that you have to whisper/tell first in any MMO I have ever played.
If you were in the open, you were open to be approached. The whole skittish outlook onto 'interrupting' roleplay baffles me, especially in this game seeming we got so many private spots, housing and what not where you can really lock yourself away at if you want to have privacy.
Really, I've never seen in all my years on WoW EU people acting all "Oh my, I might be interrupting roleplay!" If people really wanted to be alone, they would just switch to party, or instances, raidzones, Skype or anything else. If you were in the open, in roleplay gear, you were yielding yourself to any type of roleplay.
 Surely bumping into events was another thing, but even that most people didn't mind, at all!
And honestly, the only 'private' roleplay you would have on WoW EU was either fluff or ERP, the rest everyone just did in the open >_>
