For SFTP and SCP I understand filezilla can use ssh-agent (and you could 
use key-based authentication). In case of FTP the password gets sent in 
plain text over the wire anyway, which is much more insecure.

What are you trying to achieve?

I certainly hope that you are aware of this issue, then:
Wrong timestamp on files copied
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55804

It has caused me quite some problems when using Konqueror as my FTP client.

It depends on what your requirements are.  Are you specifically
looking for a client with a GUI interface?  I went looking for
the best line-mode FTP client a couple of years ago, and the best
one I could find was lftp.  It is packaged for Debian, and is very
good.  It supports advanced features like simultaneous multi-tasking
file transfers, many protocols, including FTPS, FTP, SFTP, HTTP,
HTTPS, and FISH.  I'm not sure about SCP though.  Of course, I was
specifically *not* looking for a GUI client, since I was installing
it on a serer without X support.  If you specifically require a GUI
"point and click, drop and drag" type interface, this will not meet
your requirements.  I don't know how it stores the password, either.

For SCP you might want to look at putty-tools.  But I've never used it.
gftp-gtk looks like a possibility.  It's GUI.  But I've never used it
either and I don't know its capabilities.
