This is very cool, I just tried it and it works as advertised.
But what is going on with the DropBox API? They have changed it around to require pre-approval:
"At this time, only mobile apps that run natively on the device are being approved"
https://www.dropbox.com/developers/announcements/6 https://www.dropbox.com/developers/announcements/6
The documentation on how to do the OAuth authorization is missing -- just the mobile method is up.
And this kind of documentation does not exactly inspire confidence:
"Remember, if you ever feel you need to store their password, then you are doing it wrong. Very wrong. Storing passwords is evil, and makes us hate you"
Why not explain that if a user changes passwords your app will stop working. Why not respond with a .png of a CAPTCHA when authenticating with a password?
