Comment 2 for bug 375005

With Ubuntu 10.04 came the possibility of syncing files outside of the "Ubuntu One" folder.

I'm now sharing various application configuration files, they reside in hidden folders.
~/.irssi/config for an example.

The task of making sure that all my files are synced is VERY difficult when they are being spread all over the filesystem.
Visual clues like a big red X, won't help with those files as i never browse to them using a file browser.

A quick workaround is doing a search for .u1conflict every now and then, but that's a very ugly way of doing things.

Please add a notification when files are out of sync.
An email from ubuntuone.com should do the trick.

There is also the question of how to solve the conflict.
In my opinion the conflicting file should be sucked up into the cloud and distributed onto all of the client machines.
When the user decides what to do, from a gui\ubuntuone-website, the changes should be applied on all of the machines.
