I remember it quite clearly, because I had a lot of trouble with it. If a server I had been working on wasn't available the next time I tried to open a file via FTP, BBEdit would spin it's wheels for several minutes before it would finally give up and tell me there was an error - and let me specify a different connection. Also, since I did frequently work in several different environments, this happened a lot and BBEdit's preferences would eventually get corrupted, and I'd have to wax all the preferences to get any FTP access at all back.

I haven't needed to do any FTP stuff since I got BBEdit 8.5, but I'd welcome not having to wait forever for the default FTP to time out. OTOH, I might just get murderously mad if, once I'm working on a file opened from an FTP server, a "save as" won't automatically drop me back where I opened the file from.

file...once you connected to a given server, remote operations assumed that server until a new one was selected. That's how I remember it, at least.
