For me, "I wish to leave now, may I?" is not a true tag question and is in fact a comma splice. I wouldn't know how to answer (3). "I wish to leave now, don't I?" hardly works even in the indignant sense of "don't I?" (since it clashes with the polite "wish").

essam gaweeshI would appreciate it if you answered my questions.

By the way, while it is obvious in the context that you meant this politely, I feel I should point out just for information that actually it may have a terse or even impolite feel. This is what we may say if we are annoyed with someone for not previously being helpful, for instance.
