I would change that rule a bit, because wxgtk is a special case. The 2.9 branch is a devel branch, keeping wxgtk for the stable branch and adding a suffix for the devel branch makes sense. Speaking of wxgtk, now that 3.0.0 is out, we will most likely need to get rid of wxgtk29 and create a legacy wxgtk28 package.
Anyway, imho the rule should be: use plain name for the latest stable release, and add the appropriate suffix (usually 1 or 2 digits) for any other release.
I prefer leave all things as is without any new rules. There are packages that have multiple stable branches.
