There's a difference between coding machismo and coding masochism.... 

I guess I just don't like using text editors' integral FTP. It's maybe a
matter of "this was more trouble than it was worth X years ago, and I've
not gone back and retried it lately".

I'm more likely to use an FTP client that I can use over SSH and tell
which editor I like to use for each filetype. But even so, for editing
of remote files, they're still downloaded and uploaded again - and
there's still the need to reset the permissions on the files once
they're uploaded.
