Probably quite nice for an exhibition build but the idea of building into that case and then shipping the built PC in the original case box is a 100% resounding "no".
Personally I like the case and think it'd look in white
The only thing this case achieves is pain in the ass cabling.I'm glad my O11D Evo XL has a support bar in the corner for that reason (removable with 4 screws), otherwise it's impossible to properly lift it without seriously flexing the front top half.
From what I can tell the motherboard tray and back panel form a thin steel box where the motherboard tray is mostly open cutout holes for cooler mounting, SSDs, cable routing with a few pieces to connect motherboard standoffs. The back panel is mostly solid but it's too far away from the unsupported glass sides to really offer any structural support.
I don't think people move display cases like this around very much anyway, it's just not practical - so the strength of the case isn't really something you'd worry about once built (and I've already said it wouldn't be a case I'd choose if the system was ever going to need shipping).
