It's a bit of a hot button topic around here, but I still feel if you were playing a White Mage, no one would need to know you're healing with succor compared to conjury. I doubt anyone would know the difference, to be quite honest.^This.
Similarly, Summoner isn't forbidden. It'd be poor form to be walking around with an egi out at all times, but there's nothing wrong with having the ability to do it and just not flaunting it. Hell, you're drawing power from a Primal. It weighs more and is more dramatic if you only whip that sort of thing out in tense RP moments.
I'd say, play as whatever you want to play, as long as it's possible to fit it into the lore one way or another. (So far as to say I'd accept someone playing the not-yet-available rogue/ninja class/job and even the not-sure-if-we'll-actually-get-it musketeer class.) There are a TON of RPers on the server, and finding some that match your style should be pretty easy. If you want to go to a more public event without risking someone freaking out you could be "breaking their lore", Warren brings up the best possible point: How would they know?
All in all, RP with what's fun for you! There are surely like-minded people.
