Yes, I use FUSE and sshfs as well and they are very good on the command line. There's nothing quite like using fish: in konqueror though. Being able quickly drag and drop a bunch of files from a local directory onto a remote server or select right mouse button edit on a remote file to edit it locally. It looks like Konqueror is it for the GUI based ssh interface for the time being. Thanks!
