I am not stupid.  I actually tried that.  It doesn't help, because this
particular IMAP server has many hundreds of folders within the public
namespace, and if I choose "Local subscriptions" from the account's context
menu (after it has finished synchronizing headers for _all_ of them first!), it
opens the "Local Subscription" dialog and starts fetching the folder list. 
After a few minutes it just says "Loading... (999 matching)" and nothing
happens anymore.  Once, I waited for over an hour but it never finished.

I even tried checking the non-public folders and clicking "OK" while it was
still fetching the folder list, in the hope that it would save my selection,
but it doesn't seem to save my selection and the public folders do not
disappear, not even after a restart of KMail.

There should be a way to sidestep the fetching and synchronizing of the public
namespace altogether.
