I have access to a remote file system via sftp, rsync etc. But I cannot get a standard linux shell that I could use to run dust. It would be super cool if I could enter an ssh address and dust would connect via sftp or similar and show me the file system usage.

I don't think I want to go down that route. I think opening up ssh sessions would create a whole pool of new bugs.

Thanks for the idea though.
