I try and go with this balance

Fighter (Tank)
Fighter (Melee + 2nd Tank)
Healer
Theif
Spell Caster
Multi-roled char.

When you have a dualed or multi char it's often not the skills that are important but how you use them. Take Jan. With Edwin in the party he could be a played as thief with spells as a bonus. With Yoshi in he fits the mage role.

I personally like this party:

Korgan
Keldorn
Viconia
Jan
Edwin
Jaheira

With the relative main character instead of an NPC (ie Player Sorcorer for Edwin etc)
At the moment I have a Jester, named Ruadh, instead of Jaheira

However for ROLEPLAY purposes I enjoyed this party, which was my first completion.

Francis (Monk)
Mazzy
Aerie
Imoen
Jahiera
Valygar

I LOVE conjecture on the possible combinations, I like each of the characters and find it hard dropping them once they're in my party.
