Ok, that solves the space issue. However, with our application/product, we prefer to 'dehydrate', or evict, documents for security reasons as well. We have an encrypted store of the document locally for when the user wishes to work on the document again. Our customers, who are primarily in the legal space, prefer that documents are evicted ASAP if not being actively worked on so that content remains safely in the encrypted store rather than exposed out in the open. How do you recommend going about this ?

@ssmith_c, I will try this out. Thanks!

There is a comments column that can be enabled in Finder. I posted a screen shot of how to enable/show it manually. Is this possible programmatically, for example with Swift in a Finder Sync Extension?
