Please don't block me from generating a link for a file that hasn't finished uploading

Hi everyone. We recently discovered a bug that caused this to break. It is now fixed. If you continue to have trouble copying a link to a file that is uploading/syncing please let us know.
It will be especially helpful if you can also tell us:
* What version of Dropbox you're using: Dropbox Windows, Mac, or Web
* The steps you're using to copy the link (e.g. right click, then choose "Copy Dropbox Link" )

I'm not super-sweating the 15 second delay, it's certainly much better than waiting hours for multi-gig files.
