No, a "~bpo8+1" suffix is still correct (it'll always be strictly less than the version in stretch). If for whatever reason you need to binNMU packages in backports, you can file binNMU bugs against the release.debian.org pseudopackage (the resulting packages will have a suffix of "~bpo8+1+b1"). About backporting xfce 4.12 as a whole...have you discussed this with the Debian xfce team yet? The initial backport may be manageable, but is maintaining these backported packages for the entire lifetime of jessie (and keeping them up-to-date with stretch) feasible? Are you willing to handle all bug reports associated with these backported packages?
