Your assumption is only correct if you assume the sites have broken code
that doesn't encode/decode properly forms before submitting them. In the
event of this happening, other characters would also need to be fixed as
+ is certainly not the only one that is valid in an email.

Now as far as other suffixes are concerned there are no plans to support
them in the daemon itself, it has implications [1], but it's likely that
a filter to transparently translate suffixes will happen.
