I got a response on the HLDS mailing lists:

Re: [hlds_linux] [hlds] New SteamID format for TF2

We will eventually update DoD:S , CS:S, and HL2

M with the engine changes.
Those updates should happen in the next couple weeks. Those are the only
planned updates at this time.

Not sure I like that "at this time" qualifier. I had asked if any more were planned for Source-engine titles, and if there were planning to do similar updates for GoldSrc-engine titles.

Eric also said that TF2 reads Steam2 format still for bans and SourceMod in itself uses the engine's ban system. Now custom bans are a different story
