I see we have にくい, づらい and がたい marked "aux-adj,adj-i". I'll approve this, but for 
consistency the others should be aligned.

I just noticed that にくい, づらい and がたい are suffixes in the kokugos so I suppose suf is correct. But I don't know why the suffix sense of やすい is "形".

  Comments:
I agree it's not an auxiliary adjective (補助形容詞) but I'm not sure I'd call it a suffix either. It's just a regular sense in the kokugos (with "動詞の連用形の下に付く" at the start of the definition). I'd be in favour of creating a new PoS. It would be useful for search purposes.

but this conjugates as an adjective?

  Comments:
that is not the purpose of the aux-adj tag.  the aux-adj tag refers to 助動詞 that conjugate like adjectives (e.g., らしい).  this is simply a suffix.  see らしい for an entry that distinguishes between the two

Yes, we already use it on ~ほしい, ~づらい,~たい etc.

The tag exists. Might as well use it.
