Yes.
When you close TB and start doing something else, they'll stay loaded.
When you're running multiple proxies (virus scanner, webmail proxy,
spam filter, X-Ray) and/or a mail server you might run into
incompatability issues.
When using outgoing proxies, you can't tell TB to close the connection
when the mail's been sent, because it's still on your system when TB
is rid of it. (Definitely a drawback for dial-up connections.)

When I can choose between a proxy and a plug-in, I'll go for the
plug-in anytime.
