Hi everybody. As I am sharing quite some development projects in my Dropbox, I am facing the very same issues especially with folders which are deleted and re-created by build tools. I just published a first release of my little helper:
https://github.com/mweirauch/dropignore
It's a cross-platform command line application which allows you to configure a set of patterns to look for and ignore them if matching with the extended attribute method. I am only using it on a Linux distribution. MacOS and Windows builds are there, but haven't been tested except for integration tests.
Hope it's useful to someone.
