Yes, it does help. I haven't encountered anyone in fandom to date who has anything nasty to say about JKR as a person. I've definitely seen people complain when she denies the plausibility of gay relationships between her characters. But I think everyone realizes that she is the author, they are her characters, and she both has to and gets to decide what they do.
