Description

Any reason why dropbox requires full home directory permissions instead of just the synced folder?

Contributor guide

Research direction

Start by determining why Dropbox requests full home-directory access rather than access limited to the synced folder. Review the package's permission configuration and the constraints of the target permission model. Done means the narrower permission approach is shown to work, or the need for broader access is clearly documented.
