When you allowed it to auto-update and move all your files to a /Cloudstorage folder, did you find that the Spotlight indexing still worked fine? I'm a little worried about allowing the auto-update because it's working great right now with all my files in the older /User/Dropbox/ folder location. The last time I let Dropbox move all my files to the /CloudStorage folder, it completely screwed up Spotlight indexing.

Everything worked perfectly and I've had several updates since carrying out the move last Autumn. The only thing I had to do with some apps, that use Dropbox, was to 'point them' to the new location of the folder.

 

Spotlight indexing still works perfectly.
