I agree completely, and in particular with respect to the two examples you give. I think Hilary Hahn is very good in a lot of 20th and 21st century repertoire, but often too fast and charmless in older standard repertoire.
The Mendelssohn concerto should not just be about lightening fast virtuosity, it should also have wit and charm. And much of Bach's music is rooted in dance forms, not that it must be played slowly enough to actually dance to, but it shouldn't be sped up beyond recognition either.
No matter, there are so many recordings of standard 18th and 19th century violin repertoire out there you have a good shot at finding some that suit you better.
Just my two pfennings.
