Ange-ftp isn't too good if you've got a system which doesn't allow
root ftp logins. Allowing  any priveleged account to ftp as root isn't
worth the convenience of being able to use the editor, at least not
for a system like ours that does get attacked.
  The su-command does look neat, I hope it works!
