With the latest version I'm connecting into a Filezilla server on Ubuntu at DreamHost. They're using protocol v4.0. I was trying to setup a sync with SFTP but when browsing I couldn't access my shared space under /home/myuser. It looks like FFS is trying to browse first to /home, and then from there to ./myuser. But as expected with a provider like this, we don't have access to /home, so the browse fails. There's no way to get around that or directly to the myuser folder.
However, on attempt to do a compare and sync it works. With the URI set to sftp://myuser...=@ftp.mydomain/home/myuser it seems to do a direct connection all the way through. So from my perspective, success!
I'll test a new version if this gets changed/fixed. Thanks!

I've added support for folders that are hidden during browsing by checking their existence explicitly:
