So expect for them to either be reduced power in PvP, or simply not allowed. They could allow the full power, as there will be distinct disadvantages to being in those states of being, so it may just flow per usual and nobody think twice about it. Correct me if I'm wrong but a major political faction using of werewolves in open warfare would be pretty damn lore-breaking last time I checked. And if they're gonna block werewolf form in Cyrodiil they might as well block it pretty much everywhere since wherever you are the average citizen is more than likely gonna alert the town guard after a werewolf. Now since it's already gonna cause chaos amongst NPCs it might as well have an effect on players so they can heroicly join the town guard in defeating a werewolf player (and the werewolf could only attack players who have striked their first blow on it to prevent indiscriminate player-killing) who's in turn having fun ravaging a town.

The game stays Elder Scrolls -like and won't restrict you from having fun in your own way. Everybody wins.
