Lots of people like it, I usually don't. What I've seen described in the OP as Melancholy seems more along the lines of Tragedy to me. I can do a Melancholy story, I can even do a Serious one, but Tragedy, not really my sort of something.
Happiness, whimsy, and misadventures are my favorite things.
It's also worth noting that all the scenarios mentioned in the OP can be done with touches of happiness and whimsy as well. We call that approach Dark Humor.
So it's really more complicated than put forth anyway, I believe.
