As someone in the midst of putting in a front projector system as well, the drywall repairs are pretty small potatos. Fishing the cable looks 1000 x better than tape after you repaint.
I wonder why on earth whoever wired the house to begin with would fix the coax cable in place?
If you do go ahead with fishing cable, do yourself a favor and send through a composite or S-video cable as well...it makes things much easier when doing receiver adjustments, etc, as well as giving you the option of video camera hookup, video games, etc.

If you can wait a little, DeCorp has some interesting cable options. I saw TechTV's Fresh Gear show where they were at this last CES and they showed the DeCorp cables. DeCorp had speaker cable (~14 ga), coax, component, and AC cables that were all flat. "Tape" them to the wall, slap some special "spackle" and paint over. The component and AC cables were interesting. It seems like a good option if you really can't get into the walls.

Hitachi Home-1. I did an A/B the Sanyo Z-1 and found it a much better buy. I also really liked the flexibility with the zoom lens. Haven't seen the new Epson or the Panny in action, but I'm totally satisfied with my purchase.
Now if I can only get that freakin' custom screen to arrive...
