BTW can't you do ftp from nautilus as well?
For KDE users, the default filebrowser Konqi is a great FTP app (same with upcoming Dolphin in KDE 4). Actually, you don't ever need a separate FTP client - each and every KDE application can transparently open and save files on (s)ftp, samba, nfs or any other remote protocol - you won't even notice you're working over a SSH connection or on a FTP server. So no copying and syncing and stuff needed with KDE apps - wether they run under Gnome or KDE.
Konqi also makes a temporary file for those apps not capable of working with remote files themselves. It monitors them for changes, and uploads them back if they are changed. So you can open a file over FTP, NFS etc with Gimp from konqueror - click save in Gimp, and Konqi will ask if you want to upload the file with the changes after you closed Gimp.
