I use Nautilus for FTP from time to time as well. Fortunately, I don't have issues with the specific FTP servers I connect to. But, there were some limitations iirc about Nautilus FTP, such as inability to change from active to passive FTP (which is an important one. Can't remember the other ones.
For easy use of FTP, I actually recommend FireFTP extension right in Firefox for most of my users. It's easy to use and handles just about all of the FTP configurable needs the average joe needs.
Of course, we don't package FF plugins, so that's moot for this discussion, I guess.
We could of course package FF plugins if they are an important part of the distribution. The extension handling of FF with AMO and automatic updates and so on makes it usually not useful to have them in RPM form.

I agree, I don't think we should include it in our package, because it just opens up a big can of worms. It's easy enough to install these plug-ins with one click directly from FireFox's website. I was just merely pointing out an alternative FTP client that exists without our need to package additional beyond Nautilus.
