While developing software, I edit files on remote ftp server frequently.
Sometimes I visit a directory (in the FTP Browser) that has a combination 
of source code
and binary files intermixed in the file list, yet I'd like to open *only*the 
source code files for editing.

If the BBEdit FTB Browser had a small text field in the upper button bar 
area,
where it looks like there is plenty of room to add one, and that text field 
acted 
as a file filter, wherein one could enter filter expressions, such as  *.c 
or *.[ch] 
(or the regexp form   .*\.c  .*\.[ch]), that would save users a lot of 
time, by 
helping them avoid the chore of tediously cherry picking the files in the 
file 
selection, to be opened, deleted, etc...

I think such a feature would appreciated by a lot of users, yet not 
particularly 
difficult for BBEdit software developers to implement.
