that seems a little harsh. I think there is a real usability gap which this takes a crack at.

Some ideas like using viewing a linux dir over _ssh_ using native UI components.. seem cool.

I do agree, some of these do seem like they have already been solved in other ways (like an sshfs mount).

That is exactly what X was designed to do. And part of why X is considered insecure today.

I mean, I do this all the time via sshfs. I don't think these tools or ideas are bad, they just mostly aren't new, the innovation is maybe a particular ux or a particular bundle of toys?
