I'm not sure if this happens to others, but for us, it's an annoyance. As long, however, as we Option-drag, we can use the files as we want to.
[robg adds: I don't see this issue here, and in talking with Kirk about the problem, we compared the Permissions section of the Get Info dialog for our Drop Box folders. On my machines, including a brand-new iMac that's fresh from the factory, there are two entries for my user in the Permissions section -- one with Custom privileges, and one with Read & Write privileges. On his machines, the Custom permissions entry is missing.
I found this thread on our forums that talks about the same problem ... what makes this really odd, though, is that it doesn't seem to be universal, as it's working well here. If anyone has an explanation/permanent fix for this odd behavior, please post in the comments -- repairing permissions doesn't help, because that won't change things within the user's folder (and yes, Kirk tried it anyway).]
