I can't answer for the Eclipse project itself, but we plan to support FTP and SFTP through something similar to the existing Navigator view.
The basic idea being that you can right-click on a file and folder and choose get/put/synchronize. When you choose one of those options you are presented with a dialog box that allows you to specify the FTP server and relative path details. If you have previously performed an FTP operation on that file/folder, or one of it's ancestors in the project tree, those details will be prefilled in the dialog. We might also keep a history of FTP connections per tree location so you can choose push to a staging server or to a live server for example without having to remember and type in the connection details for each.
