Use existing Putty connections
It would be a great feature if Sftpdrive could use existing Putty connections instead of the manual connection setup within Sftpdrive, i.e. you would only have to specify the name of the Putty connection in Sftpdrive. TortoiseSVN demonstrates this very nicely with the svn+ssh - protocol. They use Plink for the connection, which naturally has access to Putty's connections and provides the whole Putty feature set, including proxies and authentication agent support.

Inappropriate?We'll probably look into importing sessions, but it would be very difficult for us to build a full filesystem through putty and keep a robust network stack that reconnects and whatnot.
Thanks for the input though!

Inappropriate?The session configuration import would be good. The really great feature would be ssh key agent support.
I’m confident
