That works until someone writes a script that removes any \+[^@]+ from specific email domains :)

I've never seen that (or any other purposeful filtering of address tags.) On the other hand, I can't count the number of sites that were just programmed with an address validation regex that is unaware of the existence of address tags, and therefore thinks your email address with a plus in it is invalid.
