Indicate that passive FTP (and other options) should be used when writing to a
FTP location

Key: VFS-178
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-178
Project: Commons VFS
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: Nightly Builds
Reporter: Asankha C. Perera
I am trying to use VFS to connect to a FTP file, but the problem is that I
cannot specify that PASSIVE mode should be used. I think we could use the
format below to specify for example: ?passive=true etc.

Yes, for sure, this could make it too - I thought about it too. Even if
I am still not that happy with this query-string parsing/repacking stuff
I'd commit it if someone contributes a patch.
