I managed to get it working using a litle change in sources an extra mailbox_list_subscription_fill_one(dest_list, src_list, "" ); in src/lib-storage/list/mailbox-list-subscriptions.c:mailbox_list_subscriptions_refresh()

It whould be great if one could specify in the namespace mailboxes that whould get autosubscribed or just to autosubscribe root whitch is what You need if You have a copy of Maildir with INBOX. If You think this can be usefull I will try to produce more general patch automagicly subscribing root or any other mailbox in an namespace.
