Should I install a small UV filter on Panasonic LX3?

I want to keep the camera compact, but possibly protect the lens a little better. The Pany Lx3 does not have any protection other than the lens cap for the wonderful Leica lens. I've found some UV filters that are small and attach just above the lens. Here's an example: http://acmaxx.net/installation_lens.html

Someone sells it on ebay, if you do a search for acmaxx and lx3.

Any thoughts?

Panasonic makes a lens adapter which can take a UV filter, but it is long enough that the zoom can extend within it, so it adds bulk to the camera.
