REBOL's  FTP  scheme  keeps a cache of connections to speed up FTP
use.  That's  why it keeps the connection open: if you ask another
file  from  the  same  path (i.e. same server, same user/password,
same directory) it does not need to start a new FTP connection.

The only problem being, our free time. :-)
