Actually, explicit & or | might be an easier way to not worry about
escaping things. Except escaping & or | themselves.
It might be the preferred way to put into the manual.

We cannot remove the optionality of &, because doing so will break
existing user setups. But we can certainly change our recommendations in
the manual.

Though pure tag matcher makes more sense with implicit &:
 +tag1-tag2+tag3... vs +tag1&-tag2&+tag3
Especially in the interactive agenda filters.
