I don't think they should keep him out completely, but I do think it would be better for the franchise as a whole to not use him in the first movie except maybe as a post credit scene. Marvel needs to not make the same mistake Fox did and just have the focus on certain characters. If you save Wolverine and Magneto for the sequels you let the other actual X-Men get a chance to shine. They need to focus on the actual X-Men to really get the audience hooked (and that means not damned Mystique. She is not a hero she is villain!!).
