I once read an on line source which said that Rav Ovadia was OK with a 
beit knesset not having a fixed nusach but he didn't like it when the 
nusach was mixed during any one tefilla or switching from Ashekenaz in 
Shacharit to something else for Mussaf.

BTW the Tzohar Rosh HaShanah/Yom Kippur minyanim mix the nusachim for 
the piyuttim. Where I go there are two shaliach tzibburs - one to say 
the Ashekanzi parts and one to say the Sefardi parts. So it isn't just 
shalom bayit but an attempt to have everyone feel at home.
