* relative directictories in PATH (e.g. ".") confuse 
  with-ftp in the local case, since path_find_executable
  follows a chdir to the root of the with-ftp session.

* with-ftp hangs if the remote site refuses connection

  c.f. geisler's archive from regexps.com

* better error messages

  The error messages are confusing people.  In addition to 
  the FTP return message, perhaps add an explanation of possible
  causes of the problem.
  

* Here's a quote from the ChangeLog:


    Wu-ftp has an annoying interpretation of RFC959 for the NLST and
    LIST commands.  The `wftp-ls' clients now compensates, somewhat,
    though the fix is fragile (don't ask for `wftp-ls "."').  This is
    an area where lots of helpful volunteer bug-fixers/enhancers could
    do a lot of good: by testing the `with-ftp' programs against
    various servers and smoothing over the stupidities with annoying
    but useful patches to the pristine and Spartan beauty of the
    `wftp-*' programs.


* add passive mode support for users who lose in the firewall game

* add support for re-establishing connections after time-out

* write a test suite

* write a reference manual

* ftp-push performance improvements

  If the remote site cooperates by storing recursive directory
  listings with md5 sums, ftp-push can be much faster.


* make passive mode an option (rather than mandatory) in with-ftp
