Going by a old DRDOS manual, you could not use any of " * + , / : ; < = > ? \ [ ] | in a filename and a space could not be used as the first character of a filename.
But, if you are able to run Calibre, you will not be running any version of DOS. And you won't be caring about old 8.3 filenames. So I see no reason not to allow +.
