Any thoughts on if lack of "k" right for a mailbox without children
should LIST it with \Noinferiors flag? If not, what about if no-one has
"k" right for it and none is ever expected to be given?

I think there's a difference. \noinferiors is about the server's 
ability, not the administrator's plans or expectations.

But maybe they should be tied together differently: Granting "k" on a 
\noinferiors mailbox is meaningless. It's not clear to me that setacl 
should succeed if the rights grant what the server cannot do.
