Dropbox StaffYes, it does Andy C.19 - you can also sort by files or folders when navigating the "Manage Hard Drive space" feature.
As for the GrandPerspective, I haven't personally used it, but I just read how it works. The reason I brought up the 'Manage hard drive space' feature is because it identifies large or infrequently accessed Dropbox files stored on your local hard drive, and of course provides the option to change these files to "online-only" if needed.
In regards to having the ability to identify large items in order to remove them from your Dropbox account, perhaps, currently, it might be more efficient to calculate the size of the files online.
Having said that, I'll be more than happy to log your comments internally and please let us know if you have anything else to add or ask.
