Substantial research online indicates to me that there is a significant market for a decent Getting Things Done capable application that can sync between OS X, Windows, Android, and iOS.
Omnifocus is excellent, but the developers have ZERO interest in developing an app for Android. So unless one has an iPhone (or wants to carry around an iPod or iPad AND a phone) then Omniforcus is not portable. I happen to have OS X and an Android smartphone. Whilst looking for a way to in some way get Omnifocus to interact with my Android phone, I found many other people stuck in the same quandary.
I use to use MLO when I had Windows as my computer OS. Loved it and searched extensively for a way to run it on OS X with decent integration. I ended up switching to Omnifocus. Now I am considering switching back to MLO. I can run it in a VM or Wine, however it leaves a lot to be desired in terms of integration with OS X. Omnifocus integrates systemwide. Using Services I can send emails, documents, text, URLs, etc. directly into my Omnifocus inbox and projects. Omnifocus can utilise my calendar also. MLO in a VM or Wine has none of that.
What MLO does have going for it, which nearly all other decent GTD style apps lack, is support for iOS and Android (and Windows). Add OS X into the mix and I am sure you'll have a winning and popular solution.

Good idea. However, why stop with just Dropbox? There are many cloud services. I suggest the option to sync via any number of them. Some of my apps on my Android device give me a list of 10 or so Cloud options. Plenty of users don't favour Dropbox over some of the other options, and I suggest MLO doesn't either.
