Not necessarily, since the entire site can (and if you create static content from templates, must) be uploaded in batch and the development files can be maintained elsewhere.  But I agree it may cause too much overhead with petty projects.

I was told by Geany documentation that Geany does not handle URL.  There is no interface for that in Geany’s file requester.  When Dolphin passes a remote file to Geany, Geany opens a temporary file.  So I can see no way to actually do that, unless you mount a FTP directory into kernel, which looks rather suicidal to me.

Confusedly,
