A search for "kapok" on a German hamster forum brought up a few results of people mentioning they used it.

One thing about kapok, is that it does have very short strands compared to cotton, so the risk of limb entanglement should be less. That still doesn't make it completely safe of course.
And yes, the natural = safe mindset is very annoying. Natural is just one of those buzzwords that manufacturers use to entice customers, but of course it doesn't mean anything. Cotton and cedar are also natural.
