Personally I have never called anyone on it except in the case of not having enough tape on the bat.
I too also like to taper the knob of my bat just because of the grip I use. I've never had an offical take a bat of mine out of play for it, but I have had a few opposing players complain about it and say that it violates the rule. I think this is a rule that most umpires really aren't that much concerned with. When I check bats, I just want to make sure that they are certified and not cracked.
