I also think it would be a great idea - and the tech isn't already in the game. Yes, the tech is already there - costumes, hair swapping, accessory swapping, etc. You can already switch hair styles, as well as full-on costume sets... being able to switch armor styles is only a short step further.

The tech has been there since early development - equipment slots. Add in a new tab with a second set of slots, have those slots overwrite the visuals of the equipment tab.
The same kind of system mmos have been using for years now

They could sell blanket costumes at the Crown Store, that we can "load" with the visuals of a gear we crafted.
=> design visuals for everybody & no loss of Crown Sales for ZOS.
They could on top add the additional visual slots for accounts that have a sub.
=> no real extra feature for subbers, but more convenience to change appearance.

Now, to your question: this is something we have talked about, but it is more complex than you otherwise might imagine - item transmogrication can work in a limited fashion pretty easily (like the ability to change everything to Imperial Style if you own the Imperial Edition), but not something we are currently considering on a mass scale.
