How strongly is Gist a requirement? Dropbox integration is dead simple: I write the files into ~/.osx-snip/ and you just symlink ~/Dropbox/yourface/osx-snip to ~/.osx-snip/ and everything's pretty automatic at that point.
Firstly, it makes the sharing thing a lot easier. You can fork Gists from other people, which would be nice for a team - that's the main reason for my particular use case.
Secondly, it handles version control and multiple revisions very well. Sure, Dropbox has versions, but I believe it drops them after 30 days, you have no control over when it takes a snapshot, and you don't get pretty diffs on the website. It's basically not really designed specifically for doing version control on text files (or snippets).
In that case, how will it work with gists that have multiple files? Should it just assume that each "snippet"-gist only contains one file, where the name of the file is the name of the snippet, and ignore gists that contain multiple files? This seems the most intuitive way to go.
