The typical (IMHO) IMAP use case is to access the complete folder tree of the remote server, and show/hide certain folders using subscribe/unsubscribe.

Agreed that 'IMAP mailbox' is obsolete. As I recall, 'New -> IMAP subfolder' is there to manage the IMAP folder tree. The folder context menu allows deletion and rnaming, but I believe that only 'new subfolder' allows creation.
