Accepting your description, FWIW I didn't have to set anything up on the 
server side to get sftp working (this is a Fedora-based server).

Hmm the File Open dialog in gedit will not parse sftp://, but the File 
Open dialog in bluefish will, and does a reasonable job of it.  Not sure 
why that should be.
