Finder can connect to FTP Servers and mount them to your Desktop on  
its own. But I don't know if this works for SFTP, too.

If you have mounted a FTP Server as a Finder Volume (Connect to  
Server, --> ftp://foo:bar@ftp.server.com/), it is absolutely possible to

cd /Volumes/ftp.server.com/
mate directory/

or drag any folder to TextMate (just tried that). Textmate shows the  
directory, live updates it and you can open, edit & save files. Even  
if Finder is not a very good FTP client IMO and sometimes is very  
stupid when it comes to FTP connections, this works. VFS rock. :)
