Looking at your configuration you may have a simple authentication 
problem when no realm is specify (your SQL request may fail). I use 
sasldb for my global admin user.

That's normal. It only list users without a domain (that is, using the 
default domain).

I think so (you should never specify the default domain when creating 
mailbox, IIRC). But you should test.

Not sure, but you shouldn't create maiboxes for admin users anyway.

It does not work here, but we use an old (2.2.x) cyrus version.

According to your configuration, you don't use alternate namespace, so 
you shouldn't have any INBOX folder.
