Description (last modified by davidsarah)
The SFTP frontend should allow logging in with username uri, and password an arbitrary cap URI.
This can then be used to implement a tahoe mount command (#1357), as suggested in ticket:1353#comment:3.
Note that you can already access an arbitrary cap URI via the /uri/ directory, but that does not have nearly as nice usability properties, because you can't access aliases that way. (Allowing access to aliases would provide ambient authority and so is not capability-secure.)
