This is certainly something that was discussed multiple times during Early Access.
Personally, I don't really care about the option for most classes and would probably prefer it's not added at all than if it were added without appropriate in-game reactivity. And I wouldn't expect lay worshippers to have the same sort of content as clerics, for instance, and I can appreciate it might be a lot of work adding in dialogue options suitable for everyone.
I would, though, have liked the opportunity to optionally pick deities for paladins, monks and druids (in that order), even if it were from a more restricted list to make it manageable. Though I'm going to work around this for characters I envisage as more religious (eg my paladin of Elistraee) by dipping a level into cleric.
