Well, if you use the mentioned LUFS or FUSE, it will work because your
remote directory is mounted like an usual, local partition. Geany
doesn't know anything about SSH or any other remote stuff and it just
works. And it works with any other application without additional work
(and independent of it is a Gnome/KDE/whatever app). Seems like a big
advantage to me.

Exactly this was the idea when starting to write Geany. Not depending
on any unnecessary libraries and keeping it small and simple.
