Finder still mounts FTP read only. I think fuse would work, but that's hardly a simple solution. I guess panic transmit would have to be good enough.
I have a few commands that FTP for a few standard projects I use all the time. It'd prolly be a wee bit slow and difficult to make a good ftp sync system inside textmate. Hence there being so many shareware FTP apps I suppose. ;)

I'm really glad someone has finally tried to solve this. Now if we could only get a super-simple ftp option instead of relying on ssh… <hint, hint> ;)
rsync was originally built to run over RSH, so you could use that instead. :) And I noted this in the documentation, but rsync can work with two local directories (or any two directories that *appear* to be local), so you could always mount a remote filesystem via AFP or NFS and sync them that way.
Is there an easy way to recursively transfer things via FTP? And does it transfer the whole directory every time? That would probably be pretty slow.
The Finder lets you "mount" things via FTP. If it looks enough like a real filesystem (and that's a big "if"), then you could probably use rsync between a local directory and a directory mounted via FTP.
