@cybmole - I doubt you'll get a consensus on google-drive.
If one creates a Sticky saying its OK to use GD this way but not that way, but its OK to use OD or DB either way then there is the danger that someone will misinterpret. And then there are other services like Copy.com, and the next cab off the rank, are they OK to use and if so how should they be used.
I vote leave things as they are - with the Sticky that DoctorOhh created in Devices, and the warning in FAQ.
Unless of course, someone can demonstrate that the previously reported issues with GD have been fixed. And the folder names never get clobbered no matter what - ie it behaves like Dropbox, OneDrive, Copy.com etc. Then perhaps the Sticky can be removed and the FAQ can be updated.
Speaking for myself whilst ever the warnings remain in place I will suggest that GD be avoided, same as I do for putting a library on a network drive. Someone will always push the edge of the envelope and then come back saying... but you said....
