So having something that intelligently deals with local to remote paths is
probably the tricky party here.  You probably don't want to type a remote
path every time.  This might be a good time to try out MacFUSE and sshfs.
Mount your remote filesystem via ssh and edit files just like you would
locally.  Of course, you are then working with live files, so beware.
