On this wiki page http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/UW appears this

define in src/lib-storage/index/mbox/mbox-storage.h"

However, if a user wanted to continue using .mailboxlist wouldn't
they also have to change the same define in src/lib-storage/index/ maildir/maildir-storage.h?

That UW migration page talks about UW+mbox -> Dovecot+mbox migration. If you're going to migrate to maildir too, I don't see any point in keeping the .mailboxlist filename. The only reason why you would keep it with mboxes is to have the migration completely transparent without any conversion at all required.

Also, (regarding v1.0.0 code) the default define in mbox-storage.h is
".subscriptions" whereas the default define in maildir-storage.h is
"subscriptions" (no dot)

Yep, that's right.
