First of all, thanks for providing this app (and making it available in F-Droid too)!

Pre-Submission checklist

What version of RCX does this affect?

A future version (I hope).

What problem are you trying to solve?

I want to have a reliable SSHFS mount on my Android device. I plan to play music files on my Android device and the files are stored on a server that is accessible only via SSH. I want to use the music player of my choice. I want the SSHFS mount on Android to work the same way it does on Linux.

What should RCX be able to do differently to help with this problem?

It appears that fusermount together with rclone can provide a good solution for this. In my opinion, what is needed is an app that works, is user friendly, and has a good UI -- things that RCX has. It would be great if RCX also adds persistent SSHFS mounts that are accessible to any app.

This is related. Might be relevant even though it is 5 years old.

Android O might offer (limited) programmatic access to FUSE : androiddev
