Polarisation and modifiers (slrpnk.net)

Can anyone tell me whether modifiers/diffusers 're-polarise' light? For example, if i put a polarising filter on a speedlite but then fire it through a softbox, will the light still be polarised outside of the softbox?

Part of a cross-polarisation setup for reducing specular highlights. I think the same would apply to most other light sources but in this instance a speedlite is what I will have to work with!

Interesting!
