I really wish Dropbox would add the ability for arbitrary directory syncing. This single "dropbox" folder is so annoying.

Until them, I'm quite content with one of their competitors.

You could use symlinks to add arbitrary folders to your dropbox.
Yeah, just not cutting it for me. I understand the workarounds but the reality is they shouldn't be required. I should be able to right-click a directory and "Add to Dropbox"
They do have 'Selective Sync' but those folders do have to be in your Dropbox folder for that. So not exactly what you are looking for unless you re-organize to use that structure.
