Yeah, I spend much of my development time on a plane or in a hotel room on my biz trips. So I have to work locally until I log in to upload changes. Direct editing scares me too.

Good point... I am almost exclusively using that working with a
development server, then doing wholesale moves.  I have had a number
of "OH @$*#!!!" moments where Homesite dies in the middle of a save
and I am left with a forced kill of homesite.exe and an 0 byte file on
the server!  That alone keeps me from using that method in production.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not unhappy with the addition, it just wasn't
what I expected.  I guess based on how I work direct editing via FTP
seems a bit dangerous to me, but I suppose if you're FTPing to a dev
server that's cool.  I'll stick with the Subversion flow I got going
recently. ;-)

That is exactly how Homesite handles its FTP though, so some of us are happy. :)

OK, playing with CFE 1.2... but can't seem to get the FTP to do anything
but view files on the server, or view files on the server. Can I upload
to the server with CFE? If so, how?
I think there's a bit of confusion--what I was expecting to be able to
do after initially reading about this feature was right-click on a
local file from file explorer view and do a put on it similar to how
Dreamweaver manages sites.

As near as I can tell that isn't the way it works.  What it basically
does is gives you a file browser view that connects directly to FTP,
so if you double-click a file in FTP view it will do a get and open
it, and if you hit save it saves your changes on the *remote* server.

In other words, this isn't like the site management stuff in DW.  It's
still useful but it wasn't exactly what I was expecting.
