I still hope that this is a simple configuration problem, as I can't imagine, that we've been the first to experience that strange behavior that for me, is part of the core functionality of dovecot.

Well, the only configuration I can imagine is some combination of 
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Configuration#Quota_for_public_namespaces 
"Quota for public namespaces" and with the namespace prefix of the shared 
namespace, users.%%u. in my case, e.g.:

namespace {
   type = shared
   separator = .
   prefix = users.%%u.
  ...
}

plugin {
# Dict quota
   quota = dict:User quota::proxy::quota
   quota2 = dict:Shared quota:%%u:ns=users.%%u.:proxy::quota
...
}

Duplicate all quota_rule## to quota2_rule##. If the dict processor also 
honors the %%u - which I doubt -, you still need exact the same quota 
rules for the share namespace "quota2" as for "quota".

But I never tried it and it does not look correct.
