There is no limit on the number of times that you can take a module (just like I am sure there was not a limit on the number of times you could do the exam before it was modularised). The only previous limit was the fact that you had to get four under your belt within 5 years of each other. Now that has gone, there is no issue with that.
You asked about the view of the "examiners". The markers don't know who you are, and those who administer the exam just process whatever comes in.
All that said, the fee structure was changed a couple of years ago from "high cost for first paper in a given year plus small increment for each extra paper" to a flat cost per module to discourage large scale occurrences of "it is only a couple of extra quid to try that one I am a bit dodgy on".
If you think the experience will add value to you, try it.
