I was intentionally being vague; even Ayomide might be wrong about what little she has said (her only source is "somebody told me this once and it makes sense as far as I know"). Perhaps she's right, perhap's she's wrong, nobody in Brown's current group knows about the nature of magic in Gemeinplatz.
As for how I'd implement aether (if it is a real type of magic in Gemeinplatz), I'd implement it as a type of magic that can manipulate the fundemental forces of physics: gravity, electromagnetism, weak and strong nuclear forces (in reference to aether having been thought to be the conduit for light [a.k.a. electromagnetic force] and gravity in classical physics). Of course, all types of magic do manipulate all those in a way, but aether would be manipulation of those forces that are outside the boundaries of the 4+2. Actions like manipulating the mass of an object, manipulating gravity and time, causing a nuclear explosion, would be possible with the addition of aether into a system of magic.
