Seems like rather low importance, note that android doesn't seem to protect against that either

Navigate to the Phone "Keypad" screen. 2. Hold down the "0" key so that it enters a plus "+" sign. 3. Hold down the "0" key again. What happens: 2. "+" remains visible on the 0 button. 3. Another plus sign is entered. What should happen: 2. "+" disappears from the 0 button. 3. 0 is entered. Since there is never a phone number that starts with ++, letting people enter "+" a second time is just inviting errors. As far as I can tell, this is true for a plus sign anywhere except as the first character of a phone number.
