Hi! Thanks for asking about symbolic links :)

Right now we're still working out the best way to work with symlinks. We 
definitely want to have them available, but it gets complicated when you 
are talking about using them on more than one machine, and many people 
expect this to work in many different ways.

One way some of our users have gotten around this is by keeping the 
folders they want symlinked in their ~/Ubuntu One/My Files/
