I agree with you about "least surprise" but I would be concerned that an
installation is vulnerable to not detecting outstanding VERP mail because an
admin changed the conf-break character.
Likewise, if the bounce-to system (for want of a better term) is not the
same as the sending system, is it reasonable to insist that they have the
same conf-break characters before they can interoperate?
