That is very hard core and I worked largley like that for many years.  
I like to run X11 tools to help manage things, like using GVIM instead
of VI and using a file manager to view images as I drag and drop them to
the web server.

I could use other means to mount the remote system, including NFS, SMB,
SambaDAV, and I am sure there are others...

but ssh is already there and I add no extra service or web accessable
threat this way, so unless I find a compelling reason otherwise, I
contune with SSHFS
