There are currently 19 entries with the "proverb" tag, of which about half end with a verb. None have verb PoS tags. As I said earlier, I don't mind having them, but it's not a big issue, and prefer to be consistent.

isn't this somewhat different from English usage though? You 
can stitch together sentences in English with an "and", but 
in Japanese, you might use the -て form not to change the 
tense or mood but to add another sentence/clause. I mean, 
again, there are actual examples of this precise usage: "より
強い者（身分の高い者）が弱い者を虐げるが、上には上があって、その搾取と虐げの
構造がピラミッド状に続いている、というのです。"

It seems like a (small) waste to not pick up on that (for 
browser plugins like "rikaichan" etc.)

While I am quite relaxed about having a verb-ending proverb tagged with the verb class, I can see Rene's point. We can say " stitch in time saved nine" in an appropriate circumstance, but we'd never decalre it to be something that is usually conjugated.
I think it's safest and cleanest to drop the verb type.

Not sure why conjugating a proverb would make it less of a 
proverb. 
proverb - 
"a short pithy saying in general use, stating a general 
truth or piece of advice."
"a short, memorable, and often highly condensed saying 
embodying, esp with bold imagery, some commonplace fact or 
experience"
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/proverb
the imagery is still the same, the commonplace fact/piece of 
advice is the same, the proverb is still recognizable.
