I've come around on the Zevran romance. The first Warden I romanced him with was an Amell who was way too sheltered to vibe with him. I wasn't planning to romance him this playthrough, but I had to break up with Leliana because a bug was preventing me from triggering her personal quest, and my Tabris is a much better fit for Zevran.
I miss playing a mage though. My next Warden will probably be a mage who romances Leliana.
