That is exactly true. That's why I've never had a problem asking about it if an interviewer doesn't bring it up. And you definitely don't want to work for a company that frowns on this type of question. They would be a bad employer, and you don't want to get into that type of employment situation....you'd just end up getting fired or quitting soon after starting there.

Absolutely, especially with smaller companies. In larger companies it might just be a problem with the particular HR person, not really a company-wide thing, but yes, adverse reaction to salary inquiries should be taken with caution... ;)
Yes. I definitely wouldn't trust a company that looked askance at such questions from applicants.
