Rich R. I think there are two different issues being confused here. 

Application 1

The ability to  selective synch a folder on the dropbox cloud to IOS so you can have a local copy and also can have your local folder changes automatically propagated to your master dropbox folder and vice versa

Application 2

The ability to protect files downloaded (copied) from the dropbox cloud.

The majority of people here are asking for application 1, which is what this thread is all about: dropbox's main core function. There are other ways of achieving application 2, and we do not need dropbox for that.
