Probably would cause just more problems.

Public-NIB/foo.bar

That's ok.

Nope.
The special case here is that Public-NIB/'s subscriptions go to the
parent namespace's subscriptions file. So each entry that belongs to it
must begin with the namespace prefix (Public-NIB/). For everything else
it uses the internal separator, which is always '.'. That allows
changing namespace separator without breaking all subscriptions. (But
changing namespace prefix for subscriptions=no namespace breaks
subscriptions, as has happened with you when changing from "Public-NIB."
to "Public-NIB/".)
