You mean you'd want local ACLs that apply to imapc mailboxes? I think that should work. For example if you set:

mail_location = imapc:~/imapc

Then for mailbox foo/bar the ACL file should be in ~/imapc/.foo.bar/dovecot-acl

"Proxying" remote IMAP ACLs isn't possible and I'm not sure how that could be nicely implemented.
