I agree with Brad.
I would add that it is only logical that Dropbox gives priority to the bulk of their user base, which, I suspect, does not care much about regex or .dropboxignore files.
Yes, we have a thread with many upvotes on the Dropbox forum... but most people using Dropbox do not even know about the existence of the Dropbox forum :-)
Reading this thread I got the idea that many "complainers" are people with a programming background - including me.
Dropbox probably prefers to employ their resources in implementing something that a wider audience would appreciate, e.g. some collaborative feature that I neither understand nor use.
I am saying this just to put things in perspective for those who appear to take it personally: it sucks that Dropbox ignores us, but probably it just means that they are giving precedence to their wider user base.
Cheers,
Guido
