This is a great suggestion that provides a more realistic way to have factions that like fighting in daytime versus night. I think this would be a cool addition to gameplay.

About the add-on system, though, I am skeptical. While it would be cool to give Elven / Orcish players more night vision, I don’t think the proposed system would have its intended effect. The way alignment is set up encourages players to get alignment with as many factions as possible to take advantage of their different perks. I think it would make for much more interesting gameplay and better character building if players were forced to focus more on a single faction. But that is another idea that I haven’t fleshed out yet, or probably has been discussed elsewhere.

The point is that having night vision tied to alignment would have all players making sure they get enough alignment with those factions to have the perks (such as, say, Rohan players getting wood-elven night vision) instead of the effect being an advantage to only players in those specific factions.

The problem lies in the alignment system, not your idea. As for the main idea, however, I think it would be awesome.
