There is no problem updating Dropbox; BBEdit will manage the location 
correctly. (But make sure that you're running a suitably recent version of 
BBEdit.)

Dropbox Mac update moves Dropbox folder to ~/Library/CloudStorage, how does this affect BBEdit syncing?

[Donald Burr]

Dropbox has been working on a beta which moves the Dropbox folder from 
$HOME/Dropbox into $HOME/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox, which has been 
causing compatibility issues for some people/apps.Well this has apparently 
gone out of beta and we are now being "encouraged" to upgrade.For now the 
update isn't mandatory, but we are being "gently" encouraged (by way of an 
annoying red notification dot) to upgrade. However I wouldn't be surprised 
if one day that upgrade becomes mandatory. Wondering if BBEdit's 
Application Data folder syncing will play nicely with this change, or 
whether there will be problems.
