You are right, there was no avatar until Harper built her. I can only vaguely remember, but Dylan's reaction appeared to be one of surprise and pleasure. He seemed to like the fact that his confidont was now in this form. I remember Rommie and Dylan have a discussion where Rommie states that her new form changes nothing, they are soldiers, she is his captian, etc. He kinda grinned and said "um, yeah" or something. That was about it as far as I remember. It was a cute scene. Rommie trying to be so very professional and not let out how excited she was to be in the form given her crush on Dylan. And Dylan kinda, IMO, knowing that.
I'm not sure about avatars for other purposes. I get the feeling there were, based on how Rommie has stated that the CW treated them as sentient beings, etc. But I don't think this has ever been addressed. I could be wrong though.
