I would also note that the directories should display the summary status for all the files and folders that are contained within the folder in question. I.e. if at least one file is not synchronized, all the parent folders should show non-synchronized emblem.
This will require syncdaemon changes so that it may be queried somehow differently about the directory metadata which will trigger internal scan of the metadata to determine if there are non-synchronized files.
Taking this to ubuntuone-nautilus is way too expensive, since we might need to issue thousands of requests to get_metadata() effectively spamming the DBus and some of they will time-out.
