I've used it just fine in MX960.

Yes.

Every single SX/LX/SR/LR/LH/EX/ZX/CWDM/DWDM optic I've thrown at an MX
or EX has worked.  I've heard of issues from other people only with
copper 1000Base-T SFPs, for which the switch/router may have
compatibility problems depending on how certain functions are
implemented regarding link detection and autonegotiation.

I've specifically used Finisar DWDM 80/120km SFPs, Nortel-branded
Avago, Agilent and Finisar LX SFPs, Nortel-branded OCP CWDM SFPs,
Transition Networks CWDM 80km SFP+, Integra Networks CWDM 80km SFP and
SFP+, MRV CWDM 80km SFP.
