13 - Dropbox Support #877

It's possible to upload files to Dropbox via REST-esque methods. The documentation is here: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/core/docs.

(Somewhat related to #582. Maybe it's possible to abstract out auth and/or other AJAX request type things in order to make this happen.)

Seems potentially useful, but I don't see how we can support this in non-File API browsers since Dropbox made some odd decisions when creating their API. For example, the API documentation specifically states that it expects the entire contents of the upload request to be the file. This essentially means that we cannot send MPE requests, which are required when uploading files from non File API browsers (such as IE9 and older).
