Yeah, same here, sftp (sshfs) is a great filesystem protocol,

and would highly recommend to check it out instead.

been using it instead of nfs/smb/cifs for more than a decade now,

Actually the sftp scheme does work OOTB with emms:

(emms-add-url "sftp://user@host/path/to/media_file";)

turns out the emms-add-url is more universal than I thought and I can use it to add paths with a whole lot of different schemes (even file:// for local files), so I don't really need any other emms-add-foo at all!
