I might send [space] QRP after my call, or say QRP if on SSB, when
calling a DX station. The DX will sometimes recognize "QRP" when he
doesn't manage to pick anything else out of the pileup.

I don't think there is anything wrong in using it in that way as it
simply means "running low power". But I wouldn't use it as a call
suffix, and I don't use it at all most of the time as it would just be
a waste of bandwidth.
