Sure, just like bouncing down tracks in an audio editor or
pre-rendering texture and light maps. Nothing says that the
editable representation has to be what the graphics engine uses to
render the scene. I'm mostly talking about the user experience:
there's a middle ground between uneditable and raw geometry.

Well, kids at least come with suspension of disbelief built in ;-).
Given the propensity of people (as with the UO grand piano example)
to express their artistic (or at least decorating) urge using
whatever comes to hand, I'm not too worried.

Seems to me that depends a lot on the tools. I don't have any
problem with letting uses create raw geometry: I can quite easily
envision playing an MMO game as, say, a musical instrument vendor:
Give a character the right to duplicate a particular mesh, for
example. You could model "real" pianos in Rhino or Maya, upload a
static mesh object, and sell pianos out of your shop. Interaction
mechanics could get interesting ("Can I use pianos as ammunition in
my trebuchet?"), but for teflon-coated props & scenery, go for it.
In fact, I think that letting people give away (or sell/"sell")
content they create is a wonderful opportunity. Stuff for housing
or group areas, designer clothes for characters, makeup artists
(face/body texture maps), etc... Players love customizing their
appearance and environment. Why not leverage that?
