The Emacs ftp browser is fine, I think. =E2=80=A6 Except that it doesn=E2=80=99t support using an HTTP proxy to ac= cess FTP servers, either, and I=E2=80=99ve seen networks where it=E2=80=99s the= only option. (Due to firewall settings, NAT, etc.) Given that the only thing that EWW has to do to support ftp_proxy is to ensure the user configuration specifies an HTTP proxy to use for the target ftp: URI, it just seems like to simple a feature to omit it. When no HTTP proxy is specified for the URI, EWW should indeed somehow invoke the Emacs native FTP client instead. I guess the same approach may be applied to the other URI schemes just as well (gopher:, perhaps?) > So I'm closing this. I have no objections to classifying this as =E2=80=98wontfix=E2=80=99, but= I=E2=80=99d rather keep this opened for the issue to remain visible to the community.
