Now to be seriuos.
I don't see how this can be in-rp, nor they should be treated in rp (but can be).
why?
Simple. Your character who is not awere of srp character or so, shouldn't know who he is and what he does. YOu may know it as a player, but not a character. Reading character stories as player and uptting it in use as character most likely is matagaming.
Huh. Well this is what I wanted to say.

Amazing feature.
I sincerely hope there'll be a way to keep it within role play though, I wouldn't like to see this being misused.

Read the above. It can't be in roleplay in most of the cases.
For example I'll take my Antonio.Devivar[101st] Most likely only corsairs and selected few outcasts knows it's story. becouse in rp he might be announced as traitor and so. Other characters of 3th parties not even should know it. Therefor reading infro card and putting it in use as IMG character is pure metagaming.

People can use these any way they want. In RP or out of RP. The key is to provide information to other players so they can role play with you and have more fun.

This is extremely handy and cool. You are a pantsless god among men. That is all.

Yes, you ninja'd me.
Whether reading the profile is metagaming or not can be debated, imo it's just like IDs. The RP existence of these items differ depending to views, however displaying a unique infocard is not mandatory, as opposed to the IDs. Thus, you can save yourself from that if you think it's metagaming.
That aside, what I said was mainly regarding that I hope people will not write "I eez so 1337" and such stuff into their info cards and they will be used for what they are meant to be used for.
