It's a means to the same end. Shifting in and out of worgen form is similar to druidic shifting in general, so it shouldn't be impossible for any worgen with control of their emotions. I'd say if they can calmly have a normal conversation, they can shift to human form. I imagine many just choose not to, because... why bother? Worgen form is superior in nearly every way.

Not at all. :)

That's about all we have, though there's also the note of Alleria Windrunner, who is personally over 3,800 years old and still looks to be in her prime, counting the thousand years she spent in the Twisting Nether.
Over on Wowpedia, we rationalized this with the following:
"According to A Thousand Years of War, all high and blood elves have "something akin to" immortality via the Sunwell. It's possible elves do not age but can become frail after thousands of years due to stress and disease. This would explain why King Anasterian was frail at 3,000 years, but Alleria Windrunner is still alive and well even though she's over 3,800 years old. The weight of being a cultural leader simply did not weigh on Alleria."
So... I suppose just factor in stress and disease to your character's backstory. If they ever suffered any of that very heavily and constantly, they'd start looking very old by 3,000, but if not, they could be 4,000 and still look fine.
