PS: On my outbound, my layover is longer than 12 hours (flight doesn't leave until late afternoon the next day). I wonder if they will still let me do this.
Nope, I'm in MNL until Wednesday, then take SQ to SIN. I'll be staying there until Saturday 11/12 before the return SIN-NRT-SFO-BOS in F all the way . So I won't get to test the system in reverse.

I have been told by a number of agents (including my friend who is a sales manager for UA) that 12 hours is a firm limit. Over that, you can't interline bags and must pick them up/recheck them.
