OK, but if so, then there should appear some dialog warning that your string contains some unsupported characters and the resulting file/folder names will come out in a different way than you specified, instead of accepting them and pretending that they are valid.
Interestingly there is no problem with "+" on my FAT32 SD-card in my eReader.

That's fine, but I don't process the names in a console. I use "+" as prefix only to indicate collapsible categories (like the "+" in a GUI), which are sorted before other folders without "+".
I'll use one of the batch renaming tools like dwig wrote to incorporate the "+".
