I use dropbox to sync my password safe between multiple machines, but one of the most annoying things about pwsafe is that if I have a db open, even if its locked, then dropbox cannot sync the file due to the exclusive read lock pwsafe has on the file. Is there any justification for having pwsafe keep the file handle to the file when its locked, as opposed to remember what file it had open and re-acquiring the handle if someone tries to unlock the db?
