Peter says it would be really useful for us to offer an FTP frontend. This
could be done outside the node (in some sort of bridge process, or via a
FUSE layer), but I'm currently thinking that it would work best if it were
inside the node.
Twisted has some ftp server support, but I haven't looked at it in a long
time. My thoughts are:
* add a config knob to the tahoe node that turns on FTP support.
* add an authorization mechanism: a table that maps username/password to
rootcap. It should be possible to configure this to use the allmydata PHP-
based login mechanism instead.
