Unless I missed something (which, today, wouldn't surprise me in the least..) it's not possible to create a project from a remote folder over (S)FTP, is that correct? From what I understand of FTP and ODB this won't be easy to implement? Has anyone found a way to mount FTP folders as regular folders in the finder (with read/write, not Apple's readonly way)?
A workaround I got was to open the files seperately, then dragging the window's icons to a new project window (or if you open its parent folder from the titlebar you can drag all the opened files to TM), selecting the files in the project window once so they get a tab, and then you can close the original windows - edit/saves will update the version on the server. If you close the original window without 'tabbing' the file, the temporary file will be removed (and editing will not be possible).
