I honestly think this system has potentials, maybe with time it might pick up.
Feel is how you judge how much grip you have, feel is how you judge the bite point on the clutch, feel is how you can tell how much lock you've got on the steering. You might not realise it, but you use it all the time in driving. In spirited driving, you use it even more, thats why cars like the elise, which has nothing to get in the way of feel, are popular. You could adapt to not having feel, you could develop ways round it, but the thing is, feel is good, why would we want to get rid of it?
Drive-By-Wire has few advantages over the current system, and lots of disadvantages.
