There's nothing transitional about it. This is what cloud storage looks like at its finest. Any model where you don't keep your files in local storage and sync is going to be slow, error-prone and annoying, just like all the solutions we've had before. There's certainly a case for more OS integration, and more powerful syncing, but this is the right model. I don't expect Apple to make such a big dent. They'll be in their Apple-only tunnel vision and would not be able to compete with a solution that can sync across Windows, Linux, Android, etc.
