,won't I?/, will I?

1) I will take it that 'so' can't connect two object clauses, won't I?
2) I will take it that 'so' can't connect two object clauses, can it?
3) I should take it that 'so' can't connect two object clauses, shouldn't I?

People say #1 is wrong and #2 and #3 are correct.
I'd like to know whether "won't + a pronoun" or "will + a pronoun" can't be used as a question tag?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Neither (1) nor (2) works well. (3) is possible (it is also possible with "should I?").

"will I?" and "won't I?" are somewhat unusual as question tags but possible. For example, "I'll see you there, will I?" or "I'll recover, won't I?". As far as I can think, they are only used when talking about future things you can't control.
