It would be great if we had an option to retain our appearance when we TR. Of course you would have to remain the same race but this info could be added to the TR screens.

I agree this would be nice.
In the mean time I work around this by having a screen shot of how I want my characters to look and referring back to it every time I TR.
Just write numbers on a paper. If you don't have numbers, make screenshot of your toon before TR to have a model ...
... and don't forget to write numbers during next TR
Thelanis: Shewind the Airbender (Sorc20/Epic5 -> Bard20/Epic8 -> Rog20/Epic8/Epic2 -> Harper_FvS20/Epic4 -> Art20/Epic8/Epic8 -> Rng20/Epic10 -> Drd6),
Azaxe (Rog18/Wiz2 -> Sorc20/Epic8/Epic10->Sorc(EK)17)
It should just maintain the appearance set from before you TR.
Then if you want to change something, its a minor adjustment.
it is a pita, when you TR..
on this toon did I have nose 1 or nose 2, what skin pigment did I have, it doesn't look the same as before....
That and my hotbars get wiped...
would like to see the hotbars, channels, comments on friends list... all these things kept as they were from before I TR'd.
Grey out anything that no longer applies, and then I can change what I want to change as needed.

I use the numbers as well, though with every TR I change one small thing, usually just hair or a new scar.
A retain appearance would be nice, though I guess the code isn't built for it considering the warnings we get about the TR process being irreversible.
As for retaining hotbars though: /ui layout save <filename> for each character
I append a 'd' or 'l' for desktop or laptop to my filenames because when I travel, I play with a much smaller resolution, so a couple of my characters have two UI's saved.
