For large applications (500+ tables) I usually require it. Smaller
apps... eh... I think there would still be benefits but I'm usually
building them so fast that end users won't take the time to provide a
complete enough picture to drive all RI rules. Sure, I could still do
them on my "internal design only" tables, but like you said, there is
some overhead associated. So in the smaller cases it's pretty
situational as to whether or not I use it.
My attitude is, generally, the more you can put "into" the database,
that "belongs" in the database, the better flexibility, maintainability,
and stability you'll get.
