I'm not sure offhand exactly which version of Dovecot I'm running - it doesn't seem to have a -V switch. Anyway, I created a folder which had periods in the name. There was no problem with that, but MUAs now report that folder as a hierarchy. For example:
customers | +-customername.com | +-another.customer.com
has become:
customers | +-customername | | | +-com | +-another | +-customer | +-com
Now the obvious answer is "don't do that". However, should Dovecot either a) refuse to create a folder with an embedded period in the name or 2) manage (somehow) the fact that not all periods represent hierarchical delimiters?

PS Damn fine software, Dovecot
