You might want to specifically disallow (or at least address) the backgrounds.
1. they don't have any tie-in to the transitive isles
2. some of them might be a little too good. (thay and the dalelands comes to mind)
Some of them might be good as templates for regions that are introduced in the future but it might be better to accept them as you include the new regions.
------------------------------------------------------
As for the question of Realms specific fluff in general as to relating to new PP's and feats and the like and long as all agree that the mechanics are sound rather than trying to fit it to specific Transitive Isles fluff leave that to the player with the caveat that this is not the Realms. This will eventually settle into their own place as the setting fills out. The only thing that might deserve special attention might be the Spellscarred which seems wide ranging enough of an idea to have some special niche carved out for it ahead of time, even if it's something as simple as saying it's a natural talent or the like.
