Well, I've settled down on the iOS text editor hype train, which helps a lot with this, admittedly. :) I tend to write in Ulysses or Scrivener, both of which sync between all my devices (the former transparently, the latter...not, but that's not an iOS issue, as near as I can tell). The other alternative is just a designated Dropbox folder that iOS apps are told to point to; from a user standpoint this reduces a lot of these issues. In theory, apps don't have to have the problem you mentioned, as there's an "open file in place" API for them to use (and even an "open directory in place" API) which avoids all the document shuffling. Unfortunately, a lot of apps don't seem to really support it particularly well. And I'd still prefer the apparently crazy, radical idea of having a shared Documents folder.
