Please please please can you add a feature that allows folders to be excluded from the Dropbox account (on windows and mac). For sure I'm not the first person to request this, but I'm yet to find a g...
It will be so useful if I could exclude certain files from syncing based on a file mask. Examples:
.tmp
*.xml~
mailbox.psd

In my case, I am working on a project from C / C++ / Fortran and Matlab source code. After some changes, numerous .o (linux) or .obj (Windows) files are created, and synced with Dropbox. Although this is not usually a problem for me, I am generally concerned about use of bandwidth and Dropbox resources for it. (It seems wasteful.) I thus would prefer to be able to exclude these file types.
Note: I find Dropbox more convenient than say SVN and the like, since it is simpler, with less server installation and maintenance issues, etc.
