Hi Jes and others: I haven't tried with Dropbox. But, I've been following the discussion. It seems to me that our US president just made a huge to-do about accessibility and signing the Communications bill and another ADA focused speech last July. We've had now occasional requests for feedback from the FCC. It seems to me the time is right for bring issues like this to the attention of some of these people being given the responsibility of trying to improve things, so maybe they can apply a little pressure on developers. Perhaps there is opportunity out there to change things for the better, though I'm not naive enough to think that will happen easily.
