Sorry, I don't have any advice...I tried to get ftp working consistently in Eclipse/CFEclipse and I gave up.
Got the same advice you did, but couldn't figure out how to get it to work consistently. I'm coming back to CFE after looking at other IDE's, but at the start, I'm just going to simplify my expectations and use FileZilla to upload changes. It's an extra step and definitely not as convenient as easily clicking a button to upload changes that are automatically designated in CFE as needed uploading, but at least I know how to get FileZilla to perform consistently. I had implemented WST or "Web Site Tools", I think it was, to get FTP functionality. I thought implementing Aptana seemed like overkill too, just to use it for FTP. Just my .02...
