Besides it not being "9 men, 9 innings, 3 PA per position" that people like me will cringe at, you know, it's not the worst idea in the world. No-DH fans get to keep most of what they like and DH fans get a DH. However, it seems to me that most DH fans hate seeing a pitcher hit more than they want a DH so you're not really solving that problem. And a lot of no-DH fans seem to believe that if you bat you must field as well so you're not really catering to them either. I wouldn't mind seeing it in OOTP, but I doubt you'd see many advocates for it IRL.
