Do you mean you share the subscriptions file between multiple users?
Wouldn't it be better for each user to have their own subscriptions (set
subscriptions=no to the shared namespace)?

dovecot-shared is supposed to affect a single mailbox's files, so I
don't really agree that it should affect subscriptions file.
