In ActiveSync server can change folder UID generated by the client on
folder create operation and the client uses UID generated by the server
then.

While implementing UID handling in kolab-syncroton there was an idea to
use /shared/vendor/cmu/cyrus-imapd/uniqueid, but it unfortunately didn't
work. So, we ended up with generating the UID based on folder name and
type. It means folder rename will invoke delete + create + content sync
operation.

As for the folder name, there's no problem in ActiveSync, the protocol
supports folder hierarchy.
