Following on from this, it would be nice to be able to store 
the ftpfs logon details in a configuration file.

Save having to remember the syntax and 
host:username:password strings.

Would this be possible?

Maybe with similar functionality like the CTRL-\ option, to 
display a directory hot list?

How about an ftpfs hotlist as well?
