512	FTP frontend needs tests	warner	davidsarah	"Peter says it would be really useful for us to offer an FTP frontend. This could be done outside the node (in some sort of bridge process, or via a FUSE layer), but I'm currently thinking that it would work best if it were inside the node.

Twisted has some ftp server support, but I haven't looked at it in a long time. My thoughts are:

 * add a config knob to the tahoe node that turns on FTP support.
 * add an authorization mechanism: a table that maps username/password to rootcap. It should be possible to configure this to use the allmydata PHP-based login mechanism instead.
