I will personally port the plugin to QGIS 3 as soon as I can and continue to make it available (I could even make a PR and propose it as a tool that comes out of the box with Processing), this because anyway has proven a valuable tool for less advanced users that are in the situation to create copies of their data with a new CRS and with a datum transformation involved. Other than this anything that makes easier handling datum transformations in QGIS is welcome.
