Everyone, you need to switch to Box Sync if you want this functionality. Box refuses to acknowledge that Box Sync is way ahead here, even noting in their "solved" docs that you can "move the folder" and in the table both Box Drive and Box Sync are checked, without actually acknowledging the fact this is a soft symlink, which is NOT obvious for 99% of users - almost all users think that files that appear on their D: drive are.... actually on their D: drive.
As @Stephen Fowler noted, it sure does appear that it's fixed. The Box documentation is horrible and misleading.
