Cyrus does not have such a thing as a \NoSelect mailbox with no children.

On a server which has such a thing as a \NoSelect mailbox with no
children, it becomes very important to respond to foo/% with foo/ since
otherwise there is no distinction from the error case of foo no existing.

The inclusion of foo/ in the case where children exists is for consistency
rather than client necessity.  Since Cyrus does not have the no-children
case, it does not have this need for consistency, so it isn't surprising
that Cyrus behaves the way it does.

Please consider what is useful in all environments, not just what is
useful in one particular environment.
