Follow-up Comment #1, bug #18554 (project findutils):

I just want to add that allowing stuff between {} and + would be a
contradiction to POSIX/Susv3 afaict:

»-exec  utility_name  [argument ...] ;
-exec  utility_name  [argument ...]   {} +

[...] Only a plus sign that follows an argument containing the two characters
"{}" shall punctuate the end of the primary expression. Other uses of the plus
sign shall not be treated as special.«
