dovecot - Jun 2018 - doveadm: problem listing shared mailboxes using a wildcard

I'm setting up a dovecot server with private and shared namespaces. My test
setup has these mailboxes:

# /bin/doveadm mailbox list -u fdl01 at spike.test
INBOX/sub01
shared
shared/sammel01 at spike.test
shared/sammel02 at spike.test
INBOX

In order to do some post-login scripting foo I'd like to get a list of
shared
mailboxes the user is currently subscribed to. The doveadm-mailbox man page
says "It's also possible to use wildcards in the mailbox name."

I'd like to use that feature to output only mailboxes from the shared
namespace. However usind the wildcard character * doesn't output anything:

# /bin/doveadm mailbox list -u fdl01 at spike.test -s shared*
#

Am I doing something wrong?

P.S.
Running dovecot-2.2.10-8.el7.x86_64 on a centos server.

You might need to quote that last argument, otherwise it can get
interpreted by the shell as globbing, which obviously is not what you
want.

I've been using wildcard arguments enclosed within '' and
"" for
various doveadm commands without issues so far.

Right. I had thought so too (and forgot to mention it in my intial post), but
it doesn't make a difference:

# /bin/doveadm mailbox list -s -u fdl01 at spike.test shared\*
# /bin/doveadm mailbox list -s -u fdl01 at spike.test "shared*"
# /bin/doveadm mailbox list -s -u fdl01 at spike.test 'shared*'
# /bin/doveadm mailbox list -s -u fdl01 at spike.test "shared\*"
# /bin/doveadm mailbox list -s -u fdl01 at spike.test 'shared\*'

The wildcards traverse only within the same namespace, so in this case the
"shared/" namespace, which doesn't have any mailboxes (only child
namespaces). Maybe we'll change this for v2.4.
