I believe 1Password is just using the Dropbox API, in which case your credentials are indeed needed. I don't think it's possible for 1Password to use the Dropbox App to do the integration with the Dropbox service, at least not at the present time with the way apps are sandboxed.

The Dropbox API doesn't require your credentials. Just use OAuth, so the only party getting your credentials is Dropbox.
