If you care about faction as a Necro, I'd suggest rolling Erudite or Human and not handing in your guild note... Gnomes probably have the same reputation, but I'm not positive.
Iksar regen is great, but I think the question for Iksar vs DE/Human/Gnome/Erudite is "Where do I want to level?" moreso than "Regen >>> Anything else," which is more of an Min/Max'er point of view.
Rolling Iksar, you're going to have an amazing set of zones in Kunark, all right next to your home city which absolutely adores you. Off the continent, you're going to be hated without a ton of mind-numbing turn-ins, and have to waste A Lot of time running to the handful of vendors/bank(s) you can use. It all changes once you get your 34 Lich spell of course, but its still a pain in the butt to carry all those spells with you, especially once you get to bronze/fine steel dropping camps, and how wimpy all Necro races are.
For Anybody else, you're accepted in a surprising number of cities and vendors, will be able to repair any faction you want through normal leveling spots, and wont have a problem getting any of your spells.

It's actually not really that bad. You can bank in Freeport / Felwithe / Kelethin with just gather shadows and there are enough neutral vendors around that it also isn't a problem. You can always make a lvl 1 alt and drop-transfer weapons to sell and then buy gems to drop-transfer back. You won't be leaving kunark until level 20 anyways (kurns is too good to leave, set you up nearly for life for bone chips, and you'd prob wanna stay till 22 so you can train dodge before leaving). Then as you said, once you get to 34 CoB changes everything and makes life no hassle.
Iksar is just too good to pass up imo. Gnome is the only other choice because being able to see-through walls is a super powerful racial ability that none of the other races have (and gnomes have very little faction issues). CoS makes dark elf hide racial pointless.
