Since dropbox keeps the synced config files on your computer, the only issue you would run into is if you accidentally delete the files on one computer and dropbox deletes the files off all of your other computers. I've been using Borg to backup my files for a while now, and it treats symlinks the same way dropbox does after this most recent change. Having my .bashrc be a simlink that points to another file hasn't been an issue.
