Adding UPN Suffixes

Our corporate AD is named corp.company.com. To make things a bit
simpler for the users, I've thought about adding the UPN Suffix
"company.com" and assigning that for the users. Are there any issues
with this? The dialog box seems to indicate this is what it's intended
for, but I'm all too familiar with the 'just because you can, doesn't
mean you should' adage.

I assume if it's safe to do, that new users will be fine, but what about
existing users? Any issues (beyond informing them to use it) going from
(E-Mail Removed) to (E-Mail Removed)?
