Update: This seems to extend to other TFs as well. Using the brothel griffin TF, which explicitly is said to change feathers to dark brown and fur to golden, still displays "olive" (my characters starting skin color) feathers.
Further, it seems the Appearance screen never displays any info about your arms, other than that you have them. EDIT: This is probably related to the //TODO comments in the code, so it's presumably not implemented yet.
EDIT: It seems the parser for a gryphon body also returns "taloned feet" when describing gryphon legs, despite gryphons having feline legs
