Which wiki and FAQ are we talking about here? I don't "advertise"
anything about ext2 on the MacFUSE documentation pages. Yes, you
should be able to get the generic ext2-fuse code working on Mac OS X
with MacFUSE, but it'll have to be a DIY thing. ext2-fuse isn't part
of MacFUSE, and isn't supported here either.

If you read the advertisements carefully, you'll notice that MacFUSE
installs under /Library/Filesystems/fusefs.fs/ on Leopard. The /System/
Library/... part applies to Tiger.

Spotlight doesn't search in all system locations.

If you're installing through macports etc., please do reports issues
to the relevant maintainer(s). I can only offer support for the
official MacFUSE distribution (the binaries available from this
site.)

See Q3.4 here: http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/wiki/FAQ

The sshfs.app GUI is merely a kludgy demo (that's why it's marked
unsupported). What's happening is that the underlying sshfs binary is
showing a Yes/No prompt (the kind that shows up when you login for the
first time to a host, ... accept these keys/keys have changed ...
etc.). You can login to the host through the command line once, and it
should behave better. Or you can just use the command line sshfs
application. Or you can get a supported GUI for sshfs (see macfusion).
