yes, you can mount a onedrive folder as a network drive, and then save your plex library onto that network drive. Or better yet, have your Plex library open from your onedrive folders. This solves the upload problem; API and the rule regarding third party app that needs to prompt the user before uploading anything(no spontaneous uploading).
But unfortunately this is not how cloud sync is currently purposed, cloud sync will have to upload to the cloud provider and read from that cloud provider whenever the PMS is down.
So in order for this to work, cloud sync needs to be repurposed so that it can also read or use onedrive as a secondary PMS. But it's not going to be cloud "sync" anymore, but cloud "read"?
Otherwise, this workaround can be used to make onedrive as a backup storage for your Plex library.
But, rules might change! So +∞ to this!!!!
Unlimited storage plus Office 365 piqued my interest, how is the speed for OneDrive? and how good/bad is the app for OS X?

I just emailed this same suggestion to support and the response was along the lines of, "Plex needs to convert files to make sure they work when viewing through Plex apps on all platforms". I understand that Plex can't guarantee that a file will work when reading straight from OneDrive, but I think Plex could identify which files are "compatible" and leave it up to the user to make sure files on OneDrive were stored in a compatible format. If a file isn't compatible, just throw an error. I'd be ok with that, but I guess maybe not everyone would like getting an error. Although, Plex already kind of does that now since it doesn't support ISO files. And there are some pretty standard file types that are already supported by just about every app out there.
