not use different namespaces - but that likely is no solution

looks like TB tries a atomic rename (depending on the server
capabilities) which could do a fallback to copy/rename in case of a
message - doing that for a whole folder i dangerous - in case the folder
may contain 5000 messages
mayboe you could configure TB trash to a local folder instead keep it on
the server (as long you control all clients) - may also help against
users deleting junk but never empty trash :-)
