Sure, INBOX can take subfolders - and this is precisely why the base
namespace doesn't "live" under INBOX and why we don't show it that way:
for personal namespaces other than 'INBOX' you can have a subfolder 'foo'
under INBOX (INBOX.foo) and a folder 'foo' in the base namespace and these
folders are completely independent of one another.  (If the base namespace
is 'INBOX' then adding a folder under INBOX is identical to adding a base
folder so you will never see a folder living under INBOX in this
situation.)

This works perfectly fine in HEAD too.  Since the IMAP tree has been
totally rewritten for HEAD, we are not going to do anything about this in
4.1.3.
