API - prevent renaming of certain files and folders

Hi guys! I was wondering, if I have an app that creates an app folder in a user's dropbox, is there any way to prevent renaming of certain files or folders? I'd like to be able to keep users from renaming certain folders in my app but still allow them to add new files to that folder. Thanks!

No, there's no permission or feature like that, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.

Ah I figured. Thanks! I think there is a HUGE potential to use Dropbox as a replacement for S3 and Google Cloud services for storage, because users are familiar and can pay for their personal storage needs. It would cut my app overhead down substantially, too! Can't wait to see what you guys come up with in the future.
