Ask HN: Vim and Ftp - How to do it in 2013?

I'm a vim user for some years now and mostly edit remote files using sshfs (or curlftps, which is unsuably slow). I researched for a while on google but could not find anything that's usable for work.

What I'd like to have is not too complicated: - saving ftp connections / no need to enter the ftp password. a master password would be ok, though. - a decent way to discover files. something compatible with command-t would be perfect but the regular way of opening files would be fine too. - halfway decent performance: saving a file should take less than 10s

How do you fellow vim users work with remote files when ssh is not available? Thank you all, Martin
