I think that's a safe change, and I think it's necessary in a murder
environment (when subscribing across backends).

That's going to change how mailboxes are presented to users within email
clients. I think that would be a pretty big shock in some installations
(with possible breakage in client filters).

I also set this value to 1 (which is the default in Debian I think).
Will upgrades require the use of tools/rehash?

That change will probably cause issues with webmail clients, scripts, or
other environments where the client connection does not support the
namespace command, but at once time forced the administrator to hard code a
hierarchy separator somewhere.

Sieve scripts appear to store the hierarchy separator in scripts, so those
scripts may need to be upgraded (tools/upgradesieve?)
