Certain payware planes' (PSS a319,320) idle thrust value have been slightly raised in order to avoid this 'sticky tyres' effect even if on

Well... than it's obviously the same case with PMDG, too.
I guess it all comes down to what planes one is using. I fly almost exclusively F1 c172r and ATR 72-500 and find it more than OK.
P.S. Incidentally, look what Andrew Herd wrote in his latest editorial at flightsim:
"I know it is a really old chestnut, but can we have a fix for taxiing? Real airplanes need a certain amount of additional power to start
moving, but they don't leap off like scalded cats and make the pilot yell "What the hey!" and chop the throttle so he kills the roll and has to
go through the pain all over. If this was the case in reality, ground sickness would be more of a problem than air sickness - with all those
realistic taxiways and ground ATC, I think our virtual passengers deserve a break."
