[Geany] Feature Request: FTP Support

[Tim Tassonis]

As mentioned, fuse can do this without problems, I just checked on my 
sshfs mounted stuff and it works perfectly.

I sincerely hope stuff like this will never, ever be added.

We don't want another emacs, do we?

This is probably because gedit is linked againts gnome-vfs, which does 
that kind of stuff. It is also linked against another good part of the 
known universe, as it is a gnome app. I exactly like geany so much 
because it doesn't have unconditional corba dependencies and stuff, just 
a gui toolkit and the standard system stuff should be enough.
