I've seen some people rping this as an IC means to change races, sex, etc. What do the lore masters have to say?
There was a statement made by one of the official lore team stating that they weren't actually existent IG, but plenty of folks still use them ICly. Even if not by name, I've seen a few tales spun of folks who ran afoul of a Sylph or encountered some strange unknown potion.
The main issue is the difficulties that would arise if such a thing was commonplace. Spies and other ne'er-do-wells could just change form on the fly, eluding capture. I mean, in the ALC HW questlines, you have a... body-hopper or something of the like? And the only way they're caught is by using a special powder to identify their aether on an item they made.
