Granted, his special command was Dance, and not Geomancey, but when he fought on different terrain, didn't he learn different terrain dances that he could use regardless of his current battle location or environment. It is this very last part about using it anywhere that I am not certain about, but I thought he could.

Perhaps if they wanted to do a little acknowledgement of the past connection, perhaps they could use Dancer as a class that can eventually be switched to a Geomancer job.
I think taking some aspects on mog from vi is a great idea but i would suggest using Geomancer from tactics as the groundwork.
