From a security standpoint, anything that is not used is a potential vulnerability. I am using a browser and my need for it outweights the issues arising from my usage. I don't do FTP, so having a FTP client around might mean something sometime, beyond the wasted space and bandwidth -- the system does not know I don't need FTP so it is going to try to updated it as well. A FTP server, now that is a dangerous thing.
