It is grossly unfair to forever condemn PVP chars to ugly armor simply because they are PVP characters. Let them unlock any and every skin in the game, end of story.

OK, this one bugged me. PvP characters are not like PvE characters. Endless hours waiting for favor just to get into FoW (that's "waiting," not "playing.") Time to level to 20, doing quests and missions to advance. You start at 20, with all the skills you've already unlocked, so please don't say "like every other character" unless you want the DISADVANTAGES that come with the advantages.
But anyway, really, There should be more things to use balthazar faction on. Armor sets and weapon skins, if people really want to unlock them, then put it in. I'm agreeing: I don't care what it can be used for, but give it a use once UAX is achieved.
Hmm. Wouldn't it be interesting to make an NPC where you could bet Balth faction on your next match? You put up 10k balth faction, nonrefundable, that you will win your next match? Win, and you get points towards a new title, lose and well, you lose? (Yes, I know how wrong this idea is, but it's funny.) To make it even more fun, make separate title tracks for AB, HoH, RA, TA, GvG, AB, and team battles. When you see "Alliance Battle Victor (5)" as someone's title, you know they know their stuff in AB, and have put a lot work into it.
The titles wouldn't offer any real advantage (psychological, maybe- "The RA Victor (4) is coming for me, what do I DO!?!?!") but should they be for a character, or account-based? Probably account, since Balth faction is account-based.
And if you ever wanted to get more PvE people interested in playing PvP, you could always allow people to buy skills for their PvE character with skill points and Balth faction? Not elites, but any non-elite skill that's unlocked with a PvE character becomes a part of their skill list, provided they have a skill point to burn (and really, most of us have a LOT of excess skill points.)
A way to donate to a guild/alliance, to buy neat stuff for the guildhall, is another nice idea. Maybe putting up decorations, trophy cases, or just interesting, non-functional (and "unable to block pathing for guild battles") stuff to make a guild hall stand out a bit.
