You can use the "Quickconnect" feature with SFTP. If you are running on
standard port 22, you can simply put 22 in the port box. For non-standard
ports, you can prepend sftp:// to the host name and it will connect via SFTP
instead of FTP.

Apologies to Dave as he'll be getting this twice as I somehow forgot to
include questions@ when replying. Thought this might come in handy for
others who want to SFTP into a box with FileZilla, so resending to the list
this time.

All in all, creating an entry in Site Manager makes more sense if it's
something you connect to from your own hardware. From someone else's
machine, the quick connect is quite handy though.
