Faction switching - will it ever be possible ZoS?

I know it would be low priority, and that there is more important stuff to work on right now, but I'm just wondering if there will ever be a way to either pay cash to have a character moved to another faction, or (preferably) do some long awesome quest to "betray your alliance" and switch that way? Ideally seems like after hitting 50 would be a perfect time for this (or after you finish any faction's zones).

My main char is Aldmeri, but I have made some good friends on an alt in DC. My Aldmeri friends are now disappearing from the game, and more and more I find myself wishing that my main was DC so that I could play with the friends who are still here. I'd really rather not level up the alt, in the hopes that maybe one day I can switch my main instead, as I've already put alot into that toon.

I'd much prefer if there were a quest we could do, but if there are really separate servers for each alliance, I don't know how that would be possible. So I'd love to know if faction switching will ever be doable, or if I just need to swallow this pill and make the alt my main.

    Might be a neat idea to pay for it.

    If you made friends on alt, are they not on the same lvl and you can lvl with them?

    No, I joined a DC guild (those are the friends) but the ones I talk to and want to hang with the most are way above the alt - same level as my main, b/c we all met when the game first went live. I started a DC and AD toon, but I really liked the AD quest line and zones better, so that's the one I pursued.

    I'd have no problem paying for a switch if that's the only way, just thought a quest would be more fun and could play off the lore. Thinking about it more now, it would be awesome if, when you're ready to move to a new faction's zones, you could choose to either play it as your original alliance, or betray your alliance and switch and then could pick which faction you want to go to. So I could meet my DC friends, as a DC player, in whatever their next zone is, and we could do the vet ranks together.
