Or maybe an app like gftp that can handle ftp and ssh, and maybe add
mtp support, since its similar operation. Could do with efm, but need
ideally dual pane, local/remote. Which would require a change to efm
UI. Pretty sure it does not have pane support now. Two file browsers in
same window.

Maybe something to add to the EFL Apps ToDo

Not sure about others, but on KDE/Plasma, the MTP support was horrible.
So bad I used adb pull/push to get images and media off my Android
devices. I looked at a QT based MTP app, it was ok. Haven't checked out
new version. Moving away from QT stuff, so likely remove it from my
overlay.

MTP seems to be a horrible protocol and has never been very reliable. I
could see a slew of bugs if adding such support efm.

Not sure if verne has plans for any of this stuff, or has it already.
