It seems to me that the behavior would best be left as an option. Right now it's silly that I have to copy any files I want shared on Ubuntu One into the folder, when I could just symlink the folder(s) I want to use. That way if I update files, I don't have to go and update the copies as well.
I suppose there may be the occasional desire to copy the symlinks themselves and not resolve them, for which some kind of option might be made available?
