It's a trial system and just as housing had to be constantly retooled to be effective, so too will the glamour system. This is the prototype and it must be tested, what better way to do so than to give it to the community to fiddle with.
That's a load of crap, quite honestly. >_> It is not impossible to consider these kinds of things before release of a feature, especially when there are a million examples of wardrobe systems out there to learn from. Their armor type and ilvl restrictions are not some genius piece of work the light of which we should bask beneath and thank our gods and goddesses that The Holy SE has deigned us worthy of their attention. They are something that SE deliberately did, but in my opinion it was a god-awful decision. It had nothing to do with being a prototype and everything to do with SE's obsession of restricting their players' activities to an extremely narrow, pre-approved range of options.
The hands-off consumer attitude is how we never get what we want, by the way. It's not smart consumership. If we don't point out what we don't like, SE (and other companies) isn't going to improve, because improving costs man-hours and money.
I really, really don't see what's so thematically wrong with wanting to use armor that I've earned whenever I want with a vanity system that, by definition, should allow us to look like whatever we want because that's kind of part of the spirit of vanity.
[edit] A new screenshot seems to suggest that the prisms are going to be DoH-specific. That DRG is using a LTW-crafted prism to glamour his mail armor. This could be extremely annoying. >_<
