I love rare pairs. Snucius is one of my favorite things on earth. I do have to admit that as much as I love them, I'm more likely to write a rare pairing as a one-shot than a longer fic possibly because of the feedback issue. I don't want to pour huge portions of time into something no one's going to read, you know? But on the other hand, I like writing it. Most of the rare pairings I've written have been het (Arthur/Hermione, Narcissa/Dumbledore, Snape/Luna), but a few have been slash. I love the challenge of making it believable.
I wrote a Percy/Charlie once that was not only rare, but it carried the incest squick and posted it on an archive. The funny thing is that it got tons of hits and almost no feedback. I'm wondering if sometimes people don't want to admit that they like something (Snape/Filch would probably fall into this category too), so they just don't comment?
