No Emblems in Pantheon Files

[Anas Ramadan]

Unlike Nautilus file manger, I can't use Emblems in the native elementary file manager.
I wish I could be able use them.

An important one would be those for the pantheon dropbox plugin:

I'm going to mark this as "Won't fix". Emblems is something to expose to plugins or for Files itself to use (such as the read only or symlink emblems), but I think exposing arbitrary emblems falls under the category of work-that's-not-actually-work.

If there are certain emblems that we can add automatically by detecting certain metadata, please file individual reports for those.
