Some of us work/play better at such an hour :-)

I've been using bash, Emacs and the *nix CLI utilities since I started with
Linux in the days of RedHat 7 so I'm no stranger to this mode of operation.
However, some tasks can be done more efficiently from a GUI and FTP is one
of them. Why is the Dreamweaver tree view so impossible to clone in a Linux
FTP client? It would appear to be a basic feature but I don't see it
anywhere is OSS ftp clients. CLI isn't the answer to everything.
