      I have checked out Vicomsofts client and it seems pretty solid. I like that you can be specific about how you want to respond upon an error. I also like that you can set 'default permissions'; I am often uploading items from a Windows Shared Folder, and inevitably the uploaded folder has its permissions set to 700 and is therefore not readable by the webserver ...

      It does lack a feature that I think would be great: the ability to import bookmarks or ideally, just plain use bookmarks from my ~/.netrc file
