Good naming. Appending /folder-type will allow us to have more entries.
(I thought about using vendor.* attribute names for that, but the imapd
implementation doesn't allow that anyway).

I suppose nobody asked them yet? So I just did (on cyrus-devel).
I asked what was their plan for annotatemore support, and whether they
would accept a patch from me that allows /vendor/* as an entry name.
(I had a look at the code first :)
