So ... Does this mean the client needs to periodically scan the local
directory for changes?  If so, that's kind of a fatal flaw for anyone who
has a serious number of files in there... It really needs to utilize inotify
/ FSEvents / kqueue / or Directory Change Notifications, or whatever it's
called in the OS of your choice...

Also, hopefully they'll add support for https soon.  Cuz an awful lot of
situations (corporate environments) don't permit ssh access, but you can
traverse a https proxy or they simply permit https traffic.
