I've got a little FOney for multi with my brother (HUcast). We're both about level 30 untweaked. One time we were in Ruins and I decided to melee, so I equipped a saber I'd picked up off the ground. "Look! I'm doing damage! Look, I just did one damage to a Dimenian! Ooo, that time I did two!" And he was like "Stick to the spells, dear..." 
...and, uh, yeah. I can see that a very high level FOney might be able to melee in some areas of Ult if she's owned everything already and wants a challenge, but I don't think it's advisable in any other situation. There's a real difficulty too finding multi-hit weapons for a FO, especially if you're offline. (My problem with my poor FOmar right now, and the reason he goes pure casting past Ult Caves). FOmar's all right meleeing with the right equip though. Having fed mine his limit of HP mats, and with a good level of Deband, he's not quite as fragile as he used to be.
But I would not like to try it with a FOnewearl.
