That was my worry - the definition of most. 99% of switches or 60%? This
isn't actually a standard is it, so I presume this behaviour is expected,

The only way to make sure is to try, but with my (I guess) average insight
in ethernet headers I don't see how a double tagged packet would be
treated differently by a non Q-in-Q aware switch as long as there is no
MTU issue.
