The ftp plugin has an sftp mode, in which you either enter a password at startup or use a key (but the key entry seems to be broken, see the thread 'sftp plugin : The key format is not a supported'). Occasionally I mistype my password. Rather than give me an error msg, it causes jEdit to hang, and I have to bring up the Windows Task Manager to kill it. (I don't know what happens on other platforms.)

I'm not a Java programmer, so I have no idea how to fix this. Any chance of getting it fixed?
