Citing:
AFAIK, there are currently no plans (or even strong demand) to support
active FTP mode between Squid and FTP origin servers.

so, where exactly does squid NOT support active mode, when it does support
it on client's side and on the server side when gatewaying FTP commands?
btw I suggest calling it "port" FTP mode instead of active
active vs passive are well-known terms for how DATA connections in
FTP work (<http://slacksite.com/other/ftp.html> to pick the top
result in from Google claiming to be *the* definition of the terms).
AFAIK, the words come from RFC 959 itself:
ok, got it.
