That certainly is powerful enough to build Dropbox functionality into a web site, but it's much more free form and would require more work to build exactly what you want, as opposed to a sort of embeddable widget like you requested.

Thanks for the additional feedback! I don't have any news on this though; Dropbox currently doesn't offer a pre-built embeddable option like this, but I'll add your voice to the feature request.
