It is wish, not a bug.
It would be nice, add support for external editing.
Similar possibility I have under Notepad++ with NppFTP plugin. I can define some external server with connection protocol. Then I can browse external filesystem, make new directories and files, open and edit existings. It supports ftp/sftp/ftps and ssh protocols.
Unfortunately notepad++ supports only syntax highlighting, because it is textfile editor, not IDE.
Working under padre I must work in temporary directory under windows, then I must use some external tool for update file to external server manually. This is inconvenient.
But there is a chance build another functionality. This is editing script remotely, and running it remotely by catching STDIN/STDOUT/STDERR from external terminal. At now I thing about ssh connection, but maybe it will be useable on other protocols.

If it is needed, split this wish into two ones.
