The current version of dovecot in testing and unstable has a bug that does not

This is a known bug in dovecot [1] and it has been fixed upstream in the 1.1
branch [2]. The patch in [2] is backportable to 1.0.15 and seems to function
well.

Steps to reproduce:

You may be right about the bug, but you forgot one important step:
dovecot-shared file must exist in the maildir, otherwise Dovecot doesn't
even try to use private \Seen flags.

You are right, I actually forgot to clarify that amidst all the bug-hunting:

All maildirs in the public namespace had a dovecot-shared file with appropriate permissions (640).

Cheers,
