I've done armor damage in play. It wasn't bad, as long as all of the players were on board for it. My players still make offhand remarks that start with "if we were tracking penetrations, then . . . " It's like tracking anything else that's cumulative - if everyone is okay with ticking off marks on their sheet, and knows what the total can be at a maximum, it's not a problem.

That said, we don't use it for my DF game, but it's a flavor-and-style issue, not a difficulty or annoyance issue.
