Using ethereal I can see that while trying to create a mailbox/folder with the name 'Alex1' Kmail from 3.5 prepends a dot:

IMAP Request: 20 CREATE ".Alex1"

but Kmail from 3.4 doesn't:

IMAP Request: 9 CREATE "Alex1"

It seems that a prepended character is always dot and does not depend on hierarchy separator in namespace, I tried with two namespaces
IMAP Response: * NAMESPACE (("" ".")) NIL NIL
  and 
IMAP Response: * NAMESPACE (("" "/")) NIL NIL

I think that it is a function implementing 'New Subfolder' that prepends a dot for IMAP, not kio_imap4 slave. I'll continue to visually inspect the sources to see where it is done but it would be probably faster if one of KMail developers looks at that - I consider this bug a show-stopper for KDE-3.5 release
