Inaccurate local directory size display in MacOS Finder
I'd like to request better file size tracking for files within File Provider API.
In MacOS Finder, all directory and file sizes now list the full size of the contents regardless of their local stat...

Sure. Here are two screenshots. The first is the Finder view and the GetInfo views for three example folders. The one called Refs is local, so that size is as expected. The one called Papers--ongoing has several subdirectories most of which are online-only but a few are local, and the size in GetInfo is about what I'd expect for the local files. (I don't know whether you'd expect the sync icon to show online-only in this case). The one called Shared--UMB has subdirectories and they're all marked online-only, and so the local size is small as expected. The second snapshot is the Dropbox web view.
