In that sense, it's no different from using any other interface enhancing mod. If Blizzard didn't wish to allow this it would be extremely easy for them to remove this functionality.
It's my understanding that blizzard disabled overriding mpq files by simply putting them in the correct directory within your wow install. To change models I think the game's actual mpq files must now be altered. If you are competetive about arena, it's just not worth the risk.
