XLIST seems to be pretty proprietary. Have you had a look at LIST-EXTENDED
instead? It's a standard and one would 'simply' need to register the required
extensions to get a mapping:

  "IMAP4 LIST Command Extensions"
  <http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5258.txt>

It seems to be capable to map the relations we are dicussion here. Something
along these lines:

S: * LIST (\Subscribed \NoInferiors) "/" "inbox"
S: * LIST (\Subscribed \drafts \NoInferiors) "/" "Drafts"
S: * LIST (\Subscribed \trash \NoInferiors) "/" "Trash"
S: * LIST (\Subscribed \sent \NoInferiors) "/" "Sent-Mail"
S: * LIST (\Subscribed \outbox \NoInferiors) "/" "Out"
S: * LIST (\Subscribed \templates \NoInferiors) "/" "Templates"
