Hmm. I think it's reasonable for a player, when faced with creating a PC with only the core rules, to request that the DM accomodate her character concept by altering the rules. However, I think it's also reasonable for a DM to refuse to do so, if the limits were put in place to effect a certain kind of campaign.
However, I think any DM who restricts his games to the core rules for the sake of "balance" or a similar notion, but who refuses to make his own changes in order to accomodate the players, is either a fool or someone very insecure about their mechanical judgement.
