I'm surprised that this is an issue. I'm a frequent flyer and I always recline my seat whenever it is possible to do so (except when eating). I never ask the person behind me, and nobody ever asked me for my permission to do the same. I've always assumed that this was standard practice in airplanes. Only once somebody complained but I think he wasn't used to flying (he wasn't particularly tall). Actually, I find it impossible to sleep without reclining the seat as my head falls forward.

On occasion I've had to grab and push the seat-back in front of me to prevent it from being reclined down into my legs. If you try to recline fully, you'll literally pin me in place, in a very painful position. > Actually, I find it impossible to sleep without reclining the seat as my head falls forward. Above a certain height, you stop hoping you're going to get any sleep on a flight.
