Can I add a second hidden namespace with no prefix:
Certainly...
See, the wiki page has it backwards though of the way I need to do it; the empty prefix namespace is the inbox = yes, not the hidden = yes. I'm giving pause because I can't find examples of anyone doing it the other way around; empty prefix, hidden = yes as NOT the default namespace (inbox = yes).
You can't really hide the empty namespace, because you want all clients to be able to list root mailboxes. But with some clients you'd want the LIST reply to list only INBOX (which has children) and with others you'd want it to list all mailboxes and INBOX without children. There's no way Dovecot could know which one the client wants.
But I don't think there are any problems if you make INBOX. namespace the hidden one. Most clients don't care about namespaces.
