+1

Also maybe this example should use "*" instead of "%":

     C: t3 LIST (SPECIAL-USE) "" "%"
     S: * LIST (\Sent) "/" SentMail
     S: * LIST (\Marked \Drafts) "/" MyDrafts
     S: * LIST (\Trash) "/" Trash
     S: t3 OK done

And a small note that it's not required that the special-use mailboxes
exist on root level (especially when server uses e.g. INBOX/ namespace
prefix), and with "*" it's guaranteed to return all of them.

Maybe make it clearer with a note something like: "(e.g. mailboxes
containing spaces, line feeds, quotes or '`' characters might break some
scripts)".

Other than that, looks good.
