A lot of the fume events are reported by Lufthansa [1].
I strongly suspect that that's not because Lufthansa has more fume events than other airlines, but because they are more scrupulous about reporting them. Thus, 5 events per day might not be implausible. It does seem about time to do something about that.
Personally, I'm not a fan of the 787 Dreamliner, but there might be something to the idea of replacing bleed air by a better alternative.
