We have a need for some users to have an additional folder created

Is is possible to return an override for the default "namespace

containing the needed mailbox definitions in the userdb lookup for
such users? If so, how would the userdb lookup result be formatted?
Presumably as
Yes, see here:
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/UserDatabase/ExtraFields
Each setting ist one "Extra Field"
just one long string, but how would the setting be named given there
can't be a space in it? Can I replace the space with an underscore,
e.g.
userdb_namespace_inbox = '{ mailbox Drafts { auto=subscribe
special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Trash { auto=subscribe special_use =
\Trash } }'
sort of:
userdb_namespace/inbox/mailbox/Drafts/auto=subscribe

Unfortunately, I'm having trouble with this task.
Dovecot 2.2.27
Trying to have an "Important" folder get created and subscribed for
only
some users. When I put this into my dovecot config file it works as
needed (other folders omitted for brevity):
namespace inbox {
mailbox Trash {
auto=subscribe
special_use = \Trash
}
mailbox Important {
auto=subscribe
}
}
But I don't want to do it globally, so put it into the userdb lookup:
SELECT .... 'subscribe' AS 'namespace/inbox/mailbox/Important/auto'
...
WHERE ...
I confirmed that the correct query is executing and I know it works
because other userdb fields are populated correctly. But the folder
does
not get created. For passdb lookups:
SELECT .... 'subscribe' AS
'userdb_namespace/inbox/mailbox/Important/auto' ... WHERE ...
I'd appreciate help/tips.
Whats the output of doveadm user <username> ?
Oh I did not know this doveadm command, thank you!
Output included all my other userdb fields as well as this:
namespace/inbox/mailbox/Important/auto subscribe
