Currently Dropbox Backup supports only some pre-defined folders (Desktop, Documents, Downloads), but only in case when these folders are on the same volume as the Dropbox folder. It seems to me that this idea is derived from notebook use cases only.
I and many other pro users have separate volumes (e.g. on Mac Pro) even external drives connected via Thunderbolt (even to notebooks). Anyway it is a bad practice to store working files on OS boot volume. Storing working files on OS boot volume makes the volume imaging technologies (almost) useless.
Please support backup of any folders residing on any volumes. It is a nice idea to show a warning once if the volume resides on a detachable external device, but that is enough. Let the users back up any folders/files.
