    Well, of course you have the _right_ to do it --- as long as it's
legal, and it's not something that *requires* the data to remain
unaltered, you have the right to do manipulate it however you want.
The question comes down to ethics and in predicting the preferences of
the user.

    I know what you mean, though.  In most cases, you should have
neither the need nor desire to alter user input upon INSERT/UPDATE.
