Quite honestly, RPF tends to squick me, personally, so I stay well away from it; on the other hand, it's not like it's a particularly new tradition - historical fiction writers in particular have been writing real person fic for a very long time, incorporating real historical people into their fictional tales, and most certainly not always sticking to just historically known facts about them.
