I've been running a DMPC in our groups campaign for over 10 years now and it's worked fine for us. Main reason being myself and another player trade off GM'ing the group. We each run an adventure and then swap places. In all the years we've been doing it I don't ever recall hearing one of the other players complain about it. Our entire group has pretty much been playing since the 70's (although not together for that long) and perhaps having that experience helps us separate our GM role from the player role.
So, at least for our group of 5 it's worked really well. I say if you think you can keep the two roles separate go for it.
