This shouldn't even be an issue, it should just be a staple of MMOs nowdays. If this was a 1P game with only multiplayer support, I don't think anyone would really care, because you are the "special snowflake" of that game. In mmos that doesn't really work because everyone ends up being homogenized and bland, you don't look iconic, you look like a carbon copy of every other player of the same class.
It's boring and uninteresting.
If they have half a brain among their decision-makers, they will put in some sort of transmogrification or appearance tab. That way those that want to be "iconic" can run around in their AF armour, and those that don't can run around with the look of something else over the top of the "iconic" armour.
As for the dying of only one part, I'm relatively happy with how it dyes stuff. In Rift, you could dye multiple parts, but you were lucky if you could tell which parts were being dyed sometimes. You might just be wasting several gold on a dye that only colours a tiny strip on the back of the jacket, or the tiny buckles on the boots (I'm not exaggerating). At least in this game you can tell whats being dyed, when you can.
