Finder icon badging ('badg' resource) is not that much use these days because

programs use SIMBL [1] plugins. Contextual Menu Plugins appears to have been

Is there an 'official' way to integrate with the finder? If so, what is it?
If not, how does dropbox accomplish their finder

No. You are welcome to log bugs asking for an API to do whatever you want.

Via hacks, which are probably not compatible from release
? If so, what is it? If
not, how does dropbox accomplish their finder integration?
