I think walk in humi's would be fine b/c of the increased surface area. Also at the B&M that I frequent, they keep the lids shut on the Acid boxes.

It depends on what percentage of the flavored cigars you have in there. A small percentage probably won't be noticeable, but a larger percentage could cause issues.
Cardenas cigars in Sacramento has their regular-line non-flavored and their flavored (Cardenas only sells their own line of cigars, and Cognac is the only flavored they make) cigars in the same walk-in and while the non-flavored cigars don't taste like cognac cigars, they do take on the aroma of the Cognac. How much they take on really depends on how long they are in there.
I remember someone asking Jonathan Drew about storing cigars like ACIDs, and he flat out told them, don't mix ACIDs with regular cigars at all, except for the ACID ONE which isn't infused so it doesn't really matter. For the Natural line, since those are not infused, but rather just use a small amount of what would have become pipe tobacco if they hadn't arrested the curing process early, that it's OK to mix them in your regular humidor until you get to about 40%-50% of the humidor contents with the Naturals at which point he recommends you should just get a separate humidor. Java and Tabak Especial you should just store in an old coffee can.
(Jon didn't actually say that last sentence, I kind of made that part up.)
