That is exactly what I think.

In most cast, http server and ftp server doesn't share the same PATH
(I mean, http,ftp://somewhere/PATH).  Consider about this case, if I
tried to edit http://somewhere/~victor/ , and my vim opened
ftp://somewhere/~victor/ instead, it's not gonna work at all.  There
is natrually difference between PROTOCOLs, simple mapping can be
wrong.

Yeah. http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/ and ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/ or http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/ and ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/ are equivalent; but the ftp server I access to upload something at http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/ is just ftp://users.skynet.be/ with an 8-character alphanumeric username and a password. I will venture that in general, simple mapping will be wrong.


Best regards,
