Directory .foo needs to have the same owner as the parent ~/.maildir .
Like the name and location of .foo, this is a restriction imposed by the
third party software which creates .foo.

Foo is not mentioned in the subscriptions list, but macOS and iOS MUAs
don't care about user subscriptions anyway. Also, in Thunderbird, foo
will be listed as one of the folders a user can subscribe to, and
nothing is preventing that (or worse, the deletion of foo).
