Agreed.  I would also be much happier if it didn't relist a directory when  
you just click on a file prior to getting it.  That means that every file  
you retrieve from sonata's submissions directory requires you to read an  
extra 20K+ of directory information.  I often use GatorFTP+ to browse the  
structure, and ftp in a Terminal window to retireve the files I want.
