That's why I raise it for discussion here first.

My guess is that if this is only in LC 9, and only since DP-7, then the number of people already using it will be small - certainly in proportion to the number who will go on to use it in years ahead!

And for those small number of people (possibly single digits??) the effort to switch existing code will be pretty low...

the library) would have to update it.
We could also have a new dropbox library that implements this, but then it
would be up to the team to deprecate this one, or we would have competing
libraries.

so file a qr.  since it's written in LC it should be doable by either of

The new Dropbox library is (going to be) great. But while it's still only
in DP, can I suggest a modest improvement?

Every single command in the library takes an access token as the first
parameter. Given that most uses of the library will involve multiple calls;
and the cases where an app is juggling two different dropbox accounts will
surely be vanishingly small; wouldn't it be much more elegant if there was
a single command "dropboxSetAccessToken" or similar, to normally be used
just once in a session - then every other command would drop that parameter?
