Personally I think the best way to approach this is in the same way we view blacklisting, lanague filters, performance muting etc . . . as a means of enhancing the personal enjoyment for others if they so desire to enable such features. If one puts the personal issues aside and look at it from that scope the idea is not so radical, like you mentioned another game did it to ehance performance, not 100% certain how it worked but that does seem like a feature that could enhance ones personal enjoyment of a game.
Understandable, how it worked though was say you were creating a new character. Like a human it always gives you a default look. That game would change all the characters to look like that with the same clothes. Also true they might not find it lure breaking. However, for me and apparently others being seen in there glamours is just as important to them as wearing it. People like to look cool and nice not to mention role play, and their characters look is a deep part of that. Its part of the allure of an MMORPG for many.

Some care some don't.
